Optional you can send the logs up to three remote log servers. Click on Status – System Logs – SettingsĬheck Enable Remote Logging and under Remote log servers enter the localhost IP and Port number from the Syslog-ng Service which is by default 5140.
More about TLS options for syslog-ng under Īt this point we should configure pfSense to send the log messages to the local syslog server (Syslog-ng Service). But in this case the messages don’t leave pfSense and the System itself, so we can leave this blank.
You also can choose a CA and Certificate to encrpyt incoming and outgoing syslog messages using TLS. In my case Syslog-ng should gather the logs from pfSense itself on the local system, so I choose the loopback Interface.ĭont’t forget to check the Enable syslog-ng! Under Interface Selection, choose the Interface, the Syslog-ng daemon should listen on. You can set up the docker daemon to do that or set it up per container. If you are using the default logging format json-file, then you can specify the option to rotate your logs. Now you can configure Syslog-ng – so click on Services – Syslog-ng I am using Docker version 1.13.0, build 49bf474. Go to the Package Manager and search for syslog.
Docker syslog size how to#
In this Post you will see how to install and configure the pfSense syslog-ng package (Service) to gather the logs from pfSense. If you need log retention the logs can be copied to another server with syslog, where they may be permanently retained or rotated with less frequency. You also configure how many log files to use, and when they’re all. You can configure Docker to use rolling files instead with a maximum size limitwhen the log file fills up, Docker starts writing to a new file. As a consequence of this, the log will only hold a certain amount of entries and the old entries are continually pushed out of the log as new entries are added. Docker creates a single JSON log file for each container by default, and lets it grow to any size (until it fills up your disk). These files are a fixed size and never grow. PfSense by default logs data from different components running on it.
