Open-Source External Syslog Server

[zedexxx]

Hi all,

So we just found out that PA-1410 only has a limited storage log capacity of 18GB. Thus, our traffic logs can only last a day, as the firewall already deletes the oldest logs due to limited log storage space. This poses a problem because we have to generate log reports on a monthly basis.

We are trying to configure a Log Forwarding in the Firewall instead for it to forward the logs in a Syslog. However, we do not have a syslog server currently. 

I am asking if there are any open-source syslog servers that you may recommend for log monitoring, which also have the ability to generate reports similar to how the Palo Alto NGFW Firewall generates log reports.
