Logging to a Remote CRM Monitor

In large or distributed deployments, it can be helpful to output the real-time monitor to multiple different CRM Monitors running on different systems or to aggregate multiple CRM Agent activities to a single CRM Monitor.

The communication between the CRM Agent and the CRM Monitor is made via XML messages sent via UDP.  By default, the communication occurs on port 10999.

In order to override this default, add an app.setting to the CRM Agent.

Use this key:

Crm.EventLogger.UdpTargets

The value should be a comma/semi-colon delimited list of IP-ADDRESS:PORT targets (ensure that you include 127.0.0.1 for the localhost).

Example:

127.0.0.1:10999

Or

127.0.0.1:10999;10.10.5.253:10999
