Remote Logs Configuration
The Remote Logs page allows you to configure the logging of messages
that are sent to syslog servers. You can also limit the error messages sent to
only those messages below a specified level.
Command Attributes
• Remote Log Status – Enables/disables the logging of debug or error
messages to the remote logging process. (Default: Enabled)
• Logging Facility – Sets the facility type for remote logging of syslog
messages. There are eight facility types specified by values of 16 to 23.
The facility type is used by the syslog server to dispatch log messages
to an appropriate service. The attribute specifies the facility type tag
sent in syslog messages. (See RFC 3164.) This type has no effect on the
kind of messages reported by the switch. However, it may be used by
the syslog server to process messages, such as sorting or storing
messages in the corresponding database. (Range: 16-23, Default: 23)
• Logging Trap – Limits log messages that are sent to the remote syslog
server for all levels up to the specified level. For example, if level 3 is
specified, all messages from level 0 to level 3 will be sent to the remote
server. (Default: 3)
• Host IP List – Displays the list of remote server IP addresses that
receive the syslog messages. The maximum number of host IP
addresses allowed is five.
• Host IP Address – Specifies a new server IP address to add to the
Host IP List.
