Hi all,
My concern is: If I do the syslog forwarding to another server, will the syslogs be redirected there without leaving a local copy of them?
Or, will the logs be hosted locally and the forwarnding only sends a copy of them to a remote server?
Is there something that could be "configured" to leave a local copy & do the forwading of syslog?
Thanks to all for your time!

You can log to both a remote syslog server and the local logs, just leave the standard logging settings in syslog.conf and add your remote server as well - don't remove the /var/log/messages lines.

Btw, do you know if to perform the forwarding is completely necessary that the service console is on the same VLAN?
Just to clarify,
I have 2 VLANs coinfigured, 192.168.1.x and 165.123.10.x, and I already have a service console configured on the 192.168.1.x VLAN, but, the server that must receive a copy of the syslog is placed on the VLAN 165.123.10.x...
Thanks !

They don't need to be on the same VLAN, traffic just needs to be routable from the client to the syslog server on UDP port 514.
