System logging to SysLog server

RouterOS Beginner Basics
1

Hello professionals,
I want to log the system messages to an external syslog server.
After installing a Snare BackLog server on one machine (192.168.149.112)
and adding a new LogAction at System/Logging with Type remote,
Remote Address 192.168.149.112 and Remote Port 514…
… there are no log messages received by the Snare BackLog server.

What was my mistake here?

Thanks a lot and best regards, Mike.

Does the firewall on 192.168.149.112 allow incoming traffic on udp 514?

Oops, the firewall port for udp 514 was not opened :frowning:
But opening the syslog port doesn’t resolve the issue.
There are no messages logged in snare.

I was able to solve this issue.
The Dude was blocking this port. Stopping The Dude was the right solution.

Thanks a lot. :smiley:
