[AusNOG] Syslog

[Stephen Gillies]

+1 for graylog, it’s also easy to maintain during upgrades etc. The inputs are varied, and the documentation has been excellent for my (simple) requirements. It also draws pretty graphs and has a ‘dashboard’ like view for management reports. If you want something which has more of these management reporting templates then you should look to Splunk, which is significantly higher cost.
