Great tool. I might have to set this up at my day job to play with. From looking at the Grandstream page, it sounds like this was meant for their (presumably Unix/Linux-based) devices. Since it is a no-frills program, people aren't going to be able to pull Windows log files into this without some other helper program to do the conversion from the MS binary format. Unless I totally missed something here. Thanks, as always for the video!
Nice find - I think Draytek have had a free simple syslog server for Windows for a long time, not too sure how it compares to grandstream's or how vendor-agnostic it is. I also know Synology have syslog receiver built-in, as a longer-term logging option?
Syslog uses UDP so you will never see a "log send error" from whatever Device you are getting the logs from - so if you terminate the windows app the Grandstream will continue to send log entries but they will just go to waste
I have port forward setup to RDP into my computer. i think someone is hacking into that port. Do you know a way to view logging for anything hitting that port?
Excellent, thank you. Remember to open a port on the Windows server. The default protocol for sending syslog files is UDP with a default port of 514.
Just brilliant ! had it up and running before the end of the video. Thanks Willie
Windows Explorer shows 0 Kb because the file is open. If you open it, it will show the loggings :-)
Nice with another free tool!
Correct!
Can’t wait to see your debug video
howmany devices can this syslog server take..?

Nice opportunity Willie. You got my 'like'

Can this log server interwork with VRF_internet?
Thanks for the video. Works great!

You'd have to configure a firewall rule matching the port to output the log to a log server
Perfect network ❤
Thank you!
from my side, only the time is shown, not all the logs !
Willie isn’t Microsoft monitoring your traffic on edge 😮 heard it was an unintentional bug
Less that 5 min done with your solution lol 1 hour later still trying to work on Graylog lol however haha.
Now we talking
