Re: Why I Can't forward syslog messages using the ip

By default, the ip helper-address command will forward these 8 UDP ports:

UDP PORT

Common Name.

69 TFTP

67 BOOTP Client

68 BOOTP Server

37 Time Protocol

49 TACACS

53 DNS

137 NetBios

138 NetBios Datagram

It would probably work if you added the following command to your
configuration:

*ip forward-protocol udp 514*
