Configuring the Syslog service
41
This command enables local Syslog logging with the following defaults:
•
Messages of all severity levels (Emergencies – Debugging) are logged.
•
Up to 50 messages are retained in the local Syslog buffer.
•
No Syslog server is specified.
Specifying a Syslog server
To specify a Syslog server, enter a command such as the following.
PowerConnect(config)#logging host 10.0.0.99
Syntax: logging host <ip-addr> | <server-name>
Specifying an additional Syslog server
To specify an additional Syslog server, enter the logging host <ip-addr> command again, as in the
following example. You can specify up to six Syslog servers.
PowerConnect(config)#logging host 10.0.0.99
Syntax: logging host <ip-addr> | <server-name>
Disabling logging of a message level
To change the message level, disable logging of specific message levels. You must disable the
message levels on an individual basis.
For example, to disable logging of debugging and informational messages, enter the following
commands.
PowerConnect(config)#no logging buffered debugging
PowerConnect(config)#no logging buffered informational
Syntax: [no] logging buffered <level> | <num-entries>
The <level> parameter can have one of the following values:
•
alerts
•
critical
•
debugging
•
emergencies
•
errors
•
informational
•
notifications
•
warnings
The commands in the example above change the log level to notification messages or higher. The
software will not log informational or debugging messages. The changed message level also
applies to the Syslog servers.
