Configuring an External Device for VMware NSX-V Syslogs

If you are using an external log manager (for example, vRealize Log Insight) with your NSX-V device:

1. Ensure that you entered the vCenter host name when adding or editing the NSX device.
2. Configure the external log manager to send the syslog information to SecureTrack.

Syslog traffic must be configured to arrive to the SecureTrack cluster that monitors the device at the Syslog VIP, which defines the transport protocol - UDP/TCP and port as well.

For more information see Sending Additional Information via Syslog.
