Creating a Loopback Interface for Source SYSLOG IP Address
The
logging source-interface loopback
command allows an operator to control the
source IP address of SYSLOG packets generated by the BSR by specifying a
loopback interface as the source IP address for SYSLOG packets. The normal
convention for generated SYSLOG packets is to set the source IP address equal to the
IP address of the outgoing interface. Use the
logging source-interface loopback
command to override this convention and instead use the IP address of the specified
loopback interface:
MOT
(config
)#
logging source-interface loopback
<
1-64
>
where:
1-64
is the loopback interface number.
Configuring System Logging
This section describes how to configure the BSR system logging. The tasks for
configuring the system log include the following:
■
Configuring Logging to a SYSLOG Server
■
■
Configuring the Logging Buffer
■
Configuring Logging to a SYSLOG Server
Configuring logging to a SYSLOG server involves specifying the SYSLOG server,
the class (facility) of messages to log, the minimum severity level of the message, and
enabling logging. You can configure up to three remote SYSLOG servers.
Follow these steps to configure logging to a SYSLOG server:
1.
Identify the SYSLOG server with the
logging
command in Global Configuration
mode:
MOT
(config
)#
logging
<
A.B.C.D
>
where:
Note:
Before using the
logging source-interface loopback
command, the
loopback interface must be configured and assigned an IP address.
