"Syslog" +memory usage aspect of different settingssyslog

[hollandCAT]

Hi,

i know 'syslog'can monitor the network events.

i want to know more something about its performance,

and how about memory usage aspect of different syslog settings??for example, does it consume lots of CPU?

Give me some ideas, please

hello,

if you configure more than one syslog-server and if you configure to log the hole stuff (debug) the pix will need more cpu-power.

i think if you use one syslog-server and log "only" the standard-stuff, there should not be a problem at all.

if you need debug-messages you can configure it, but i would disable it after finishing the troubleshooting.
