Sending System Messages to a Syslog Server
To send system messages to a specified syslog server, use the following command. The following syslog standards are supported:
RFC 5424 The SYSLOG Protocol, R.Gerhards and Adiscon GmbH, March 2009, obsoletes RFC 3164 and RFC 5426 Transmission of
Syslog Messages over UDP.
•
Specify the server to which you want to send system messages. You can configure up to eight syslog servers.
CONFIGURATION mode
logging {
ip-address
|
ipv6-address
|
hostname
} {{udp {
port
}} | {tcp {
port
}}}
You can export system logs to an external server that is connected through a different VRF.
Configuring a UNIX System as a Syslog Server
To configure a UNIX System as a syslog server, use the following command.
•
Configure a UNIX system as a syslog server by adding the following lines to
/etc/syslog.conf
on the UNIX system and assigning
write permissions to the file.
– Add line on a 4.1 BSD UNIX system.
local7.debugging /var/log/ftos.log
– Add line on a 5.7 SunOS UNIX system.
local7.debugging /var/adm/ftos.log
In the previous lines,
local7
is the logging facility level and debugging is the severity level.
Changing System Logging Settings
You can change the default settings of the system logging by changing the severity level and the storage location.
The default is to log all messages up to debug level, that is, all system messages. By changing the severity level in the logging
commands, you control the number of system messages logged.
To specify the system logging settings, use the following commands.
•
Specify the minimum severity level for logging to the logging buffer.
CONFIGURATION mode
logging buffered
level
•
Specify the minimum severity level for logging to the console.
CONFIGURATION mode
logging console
level
•
Specify the minimum severity level for logging to terminal lines.
CONFIGURATION mode
logging monitor
level
•
Specify the minimum severity level for logging to a syslog server.
CONFIGURATION mode
logging trap
level
•
Specify the minimum severity level for logging to the syslog history table.
CONFIGURATION mode

•
Specify the size of the logging buffer.
