**Note**: The Syslog feature is available for Litmus Edge Manager 2.7.0 and later.
:::

Litmus Edge Manager (LEM) supports automatic log forwarding to an external Syslog server. All LEM System Events (See *System Events* tab of [Events](docId\:OnS8mKWpVtKc93cOoRAKm)) are automatically forwarded.

This enables you to collect the forwarded logs on the Syslog server for Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems.

   Integration's *Kafka* pane by default appears. 
3. From Integration's navigation sub-panel, select **Syslog**.
