Configure the EMS to forward syslog messages

Starting with Dragon Enterprise Management Server (EMS) v7.4.0 appliances, you must use syslog-ng for forwarding events to a Security and Information Manager such as IBM QRadar.

Syslogd has been replaced by syslog-ng in Dragon EMS v7.4.0 and later.

To configure EMS to forward syslog messages, you must choose one of the following:

• If you are using syslog-ng and Extreme Dragon EMS v7.4.0 and later, see Configuring syslog-ng Using Extreme Dragon EMS V7.4.0 and later.
• If you are using syslogd and Extreme Dragon EMS v7.4.0 and below, see Configuring syslogd Using Extreme Dragon EMS V7.4.0 and earlier.
