Monitor description

The syslog monitor can intercept syslog message sent to Network Monitor from one or more syslog hosts. The monitor can be configured to receive different types of messages. More than one syslog monitor can be added to each object to receive different combinations of messages. Before you create a monitor of this type, you need to start the internal syslog server.

If another syslog service is executing on the Network Monitor host machine the result is unpredictable.
