Configuring System Message Logging
Setting the System Message Logging Levels
You can set the severity level for each logging facility using the
set logging level
command. Enter the
all
keyword to specify all facilities. Enter the
default
keyword to make the specified severity level the
default for the specified facilities. If you do not enter the
default
keyword, the specified severity level
applies only to the current session.
To set the system message logging severity level setting for a logging facility, perform this task in
privileged mode:
This example shows how to set the logging severity level to 5 for all facilities (for the current session
only):
Console> (enable)
set logging level all 5
All system logging facilities for this session set to severity 5(notifications)
Console> (enable)
This example shows how to set the default logging severity level to 3 for the
cdp
facility:
Console> (enable)
set logging level cdp 3 default
System logging facility <cdp> set to severity 3(errors)
Console> (enable)
