C H A P T E R 1 5 Status Monitoring and Statistics
Logging
The switch log tracks all configuration and fault information
pertaining to the device. Each entry in the log contains the following
information:
• Timestamp — The timestamp records the month and day of the
event, along with the time (hours, minutes, and seconds) in the
form HH:MM:SS. If the event was caused by a user, the user
name is also provided.
• Fault level — Table 72 describes the three levels of importance
that the system can assign to a fault.
By default, log entries that are assigned a critical or warning
level remain in the log after a switch reboot. Issuing a clear log
command does not remove these static entries. To remove log
entries of all levels (including warning or critical), use the
following command:
clear log static
• Subsystem — The subsystem refers to the specific functional
area to which the error refers. Table 73 describes the subsystems.
