Introduction

CLM logging functions

The CLM includes centralized functions for logging CLM application and user activity. By default, the following are enabled:

• CLM user-activity log forwarding to the Kafka messaging subsystem

• CLM application-log forwarding to OpenSearch

“NSP logging and monitoring” in the NSP System Administrator Guide describes using OpenSearch and CLM Logviewer.

In order to enable one or more CLM centralized logging functions, the following CLM Installation Option must be enabled:

NSP Platform - Logging and Monitoring

Additional logging options

You can also configure the CLM to forward the following:

• application log records to Splunk servers

• CLM user-activity records to a remote syslog server

• CLM application logs to a remote syslog server

• CLM application logs to a remote Elasticsearch server

Note: You can specify separate syslog servers for application and user activity log forwarding, as described in Description and User activity log forwarding to syslog servers.

Note: The forwarding of CLM application logs to a syslog server is supported over a TLS-secured or non-secure connection.
