your storage devices, or even some of your servers is a great way to do some analysis and advanced troubleshooting. The difficulty with that is they're not really prone to good analysis work because they're basically plain text. But by using Kiwi Syslog Server, we can send those over to Loggly and then do our analysis. It's pretty easy, it's just a couple of clicks. This is how you do it. It's plain to see the Kiwi Syslog is actually capturing a whole bunch of traps and syslogs, but they're staying here for right now. To send them off to Loggly, we actually need an API key. And to get that API key, we'll jump over to Loggly. We'll go to Logs, and then Source Setup. Now we can just build a token. And then we can just grab our token. And just click here, copy to clipboard, and we got it. Now we'll jump back into Kiwi Syslog Server. Go to File, Setup. And we're just gonna work off the default rule for now. So here's our default rule. We have any filters we've defined, which we don't have any here. And then we can just build a new action. So right-click on Actions, Add an Action, and select from this, Log2Loggly.com. Paste in your token. If necessary, adjust some of these thresholds. You can click Test to confirm. And then hit OK. And there they are. It's really just that easy to get your SNMP traps from your devices through Kiwi Syslog Server and out to Loggly for advanced analysis.
