Information filtering by severity works this way: information with the severity value
greater than the configured threshold is not output during the filtering.
z
If the threshold is set to 0, only information with the severity being emergencies will
be output;
z
If the threshold is set to 7, information of all severities will be output.
III. Ten channels and six output destinations of system information
The system supports six information output destinations, including the console, monitor,
logbuffer, loghost, trapbuffer, and SNMP.
The system supports ten channels. The channels 0 through 5 have their default
channel names and are associated with six output destinations by default. Both the
channel names and the associations between the channels and output destinations
can be changed through commands.
