configure syslog add
configure syslog {add} [<ipaddress> | <ipPort>] {vr <vr_name>} [local0 ...
local7] {<severity>}
Description
Configures the remote syslog server host address, and filters messages to be sent to the remote syslog
target.
Syntax Description
Default
If a severity level is not specified, all messages are sent to the remote syslog server target. If a virtual
router is not specified, VR-Mgmt is used. If UDP port is not specified, 514 is used.
Usage Guidelines
NOTE
The BlackDiamond 8800 series switch and the Summit X450 family of switches do not support user-created VRs.
Options for configuring the remote syslog server include:
●
ipaddress—The IP address of the remote syslog server host.
●
ipPort—The UDP port.
●
local0-local7—The syslog facility level for local use.
●
vr_name—The virtual router that can reach the syslog host.
●
severity—Filters the messages sent to the remote syslog server target to have the selected severity or
higher (more critical). Severities include critical, error, warning, notice, info, debug-summary, debug-
verbose, and debug-data.
The switch log overwrites existing log messages in a wrap-around memory buffer, which may cause
you to lose valuable information once the buffer becomes full. The remote syslog server does not
overwrite log information, and can store messages in non-volatile files (disks, for example).
ipaddress
Specifies the remote syslog server IP address.
ipPort
Specifies the UDP port number for the syslog target.
vr_name
Specifies the virtual router that can reach the server IP address.
NOTE: The BlackDiamond 8800 series switch and the Summit X450 family of
switches do not support user-created VRs.
local0 ... local7
Specifies the local syslog facility.
severity
Specifies a message severity. Severities include critical, error, warning, notice,
info, debug-summary, debug-verbose, and debug-data.
