How to copy logging and/or syslog from switch to TFTP

I would like to copy the logging entries and the syslog file from the switch (Dell PowerConnect 35xx, 54xx, 62xx) to a TFTP server on my computer.  Is this possible?

I am planning to setup a server to do this automatically, but for the moment I need to copy the logs manually.

Thanks for your help on this.

the 62xx and I think the 54xx have logging capabilities.  Set up you syslog server and in your switch point to them.  Look at the switch doc for the synax.  I would look for a term like syslog, etc.

This is an example how we use syslog on our 62xx:

logging file debug

logging 172.0.0.1

description "syslog.company.de"

level debug

Thilo
