Hi all, I have a fortigate 80C unit running this image (v4.0,build0279,100519 (MR2 Patch 1)) and two VDOMs, I would like to have each VDOM send its respective syslog messages to a different syslog server (including traffic logs). My unit' s log&reports tab in the VDOM level has this text " Local Logging & Archiving" (LOCAL), only in the Global level it would be " Remote Logging & Archiving" (REMOTE). please help thanks

    Hi, This can be done via CLI. Login to your VDOM via CLI. Below sample configuration for the VDOM to override the syslog settings under global. config log syslogd override-setting set override enable set status enable set server " 192.168.0.253" set reliable disable set port 514 set csv disable set facility local7 set source-ip 0.0.0.0 end
