Can someone help me, I want to configure Ubuntu as Syslogger to trap logs of my Multiple devices in my network. Devices are networking ones such as Routers and Switches.

Devices like Routers and Switches have detailed logs what's going on so, these logs are visible when I log into each and every device manually by telnet protocol , so I was wondering can I configure an Ubuntu so that , when I log into my Ubuntu server, so I can see logs of all my devices under different hostnames for different devices.

Just like a syslogger would do.

Firstly you must first make sure that the devices on your network support sending to remote host.

Then you have to configure supported protocol on Ubuntu machine for receiving logs from other devices (ssh or sftp, for example, depends of your network devices).

Finally, I guess you will need to parse and analyze your logs, so I think you also will need some tool for doing it (for example Logstash or Graylog).
