Integrating Brocade Router/Switch

Before you configure the Brocade Router/Switch integration, you must have the IP Address of the Sheriff CSM Sensor (Deputy).

To configure Brocade Router/Switch to send Syslog messages to Sheriff CSM

In global configuration mode, configure a router/switch to forward system messages to the Sheriff CSM Sensor:

logging syslog-server <Sheriff CSM IP address> [ use-vrf <vrf-name> [ secure ] [ port port-num ]
no logging syslog-server <Sheriff CSM IP address> [ use-vrf <vrf-name> [ secure ] [ port port-num ]

where parameters specified in commands are the following:

• use-vrf: Specifies a VRF instance.
• secure: Configures a secure default port (514) or specified non-default syslog server port.

  Note: A secure port number with default values is not shown in the Brocade Network OS database.
