Hi All ,

Currently syslog messages collected locally on the network device are 
transmitted to the remote syslog servers as per RFC 5424 (UDP protocol used for 
transmission) and RFC 3195 (TCP protocol used for transmission)

However, we have observed that increasingly, customers are using syslog 
messages archived in the remote server for business logic .

In some networks, it is possible that some of the syslog messages may be 
dropped due to link failure or other network conditions.
However, the customers are expecting much higher resiliency for the syslog 
messages.


The questions we seek clarification are:

a)         What are the expectations from the external syslog delivery?

b)         Should we rely on syslog's alone ? Please note that SNMP traps 
functionality for network management is also there.?


Your thoughts and suggestions much appreciated.


Regards,
Aditya dogra
