Why don the contents of the syslog tab match the log files of my syslog server?
The MWTM client shows current syslog information available from a node, which reflects what content the node has stored in its internal memory. It is possible to configure your node to send its syslog messages to a host that stores these messages in files (usually under /var/adm). The MWTM does not access these persisted log messages, even if the host on which your MWTM server is running is logging syslog messages from your node. To access these persisted log messages, use CiscoWorks, or other software with syslog viewing capabilities.
