Change Default(UDP:514) Syslog forwarding port for 7-mode and cluster-mode

Shivang — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 15:19:50 GMT

For 7-mode I am using below command for forwarding Syslog which forwards on UDP port 514.

wrfile -a /etc/syslog.conf *.* @host_name

In cluster mode, I am using below event commands for forwarding Syslog which again forwards on UDP port 514.

event destination create -name int_fwd -syslog host_name
event route add-destinations -message-name * -destinations int_fwd

For both 7-mode and cluster mode, I want to change the port on which Syslog is forwarded.

1) Is there any way to change the port on which Syslogs are forwarded on the simulator?

2) Do this change is possible in the real environment?
