Pre-requisites
To configure a secure connection from the switch to the syslog server:
1
On the switch, enable the SSH server
Dell(conf)#ip ssh server enable
2
On the syslog server, create a reverse SSH
tunnel from the syslog server to the switch,
using following syntax:
ssh -R <remote port>:<syslog
server>:<syslog server listen port>
user@remote_host -nNf
In the following example the syslog server IP
address is 10.156.166.48 and the listening
port is 5141. The switch IP address is
10.16.131.141 and the listening port is 5140
ssh -R 5140:10.156.166.48:5141
admin@10.16.131.141 -nNf
