Hi All,

 

Need some help with syslog configuration on firewalled environment. I wanted to implement syslog-ng in firewalled environment. The setup is like:

 

I have one Syslog-ng outside the firewall which collects logs from various components in the network. Now what I want is to pass on these logs from this syslog-ng server (outside firewall) to a syslog server inside the firewall i.e. to make the whole setup firewall friendly.

 

One of the standard way to make anything firewall friendly is that the communications between two server should be started from the server inside the firewall. Is there a way we can do this with syslog-ng?

 

Can someone please provide some insights, it would be really appreciated.

 

Thanks and Regards
