Setting the Switch Logging Severity Level
The switch logging feature can log all switch error-type events for a particular switch application. You can
also assign severity levels to the switch applications that cause some of the events to be filtered out of your
display. The
command is used to assign the severity levels to the applications.
The syntax for the
command requires that you identify a switch application and assign it a
severity level. The severity level controls the kinds of error-type events that are recorded by the switch
logging function. If an application experiences an event equal to or greater than the severity level assigned
to the application, the event is recorded and forwarded to the configured output devices. You can specify
the application either by the application ID CLI keyword or by its numeric equivalent.
The application ID information is shown in the following table. The severity level information is shown in
the table beginning on
