Verify logging configuration using the command show logging.

The router console will display a message that logging has started. Configure the routers to identify the remote host (Syslog Server) that will receive logging messages. R1(config)#service timestamps log datetime msecĬonfigure routers to log messages to the Syslog Server. Step 4 – Configure routers to timestamp log messages.Ĭonfigure timestamp service for logging on the routers. Verify that the hardware clock was updated using the command show clock. Step 3 – Configure routers to update hardware clock.Ĭonfigure R1, R2 and R3 to periodically update the hardware clock with the time learned from NTP. Verify client configuration using the command show ntp status. Step 2 – Configure R1, R2 and R3 as NTP clients. This post will describe step by step how to configure SSH, NTP and Syslog on Cisco router. This packet tracer activity is about configure cisco router for syslog, NTP (Network Time Protocol) and SSH Operations. The purpose of Syslog is to provide message logging. Network Time Protocol (NTP) allows routers on the network to synchronize their time settings with an NTP server while SSH is a network protocol which establishes a secure terminal emulation connection to networking device. This post is solution or answer for Packet Tracer Activity Chapter 2 Network Security.
