Configuring the Syslog service
Syntax: show logging
The Syslog display shows the following configuration information, in the rows above the log entries
themselves.
Static and dynamic buffers
The software provides two buffers:
•
Static – logs power supply failures, fan failures, and temperature warning or shutdown
messages
•
Dynamic – logs all other message types

Syslog logging
The state (enabled or disabled) of the Syslog buffer.
messages dropped
The number of Syslog messages dropped due to user-configured filters. By
default, the software logs messages for all Syslog levels. You can disable
individual Syslog levels, in which case the software filters out messages at those
levels. Refer to
“Disabling logging of a message level”
on page 228. Each time
the software filters out a Syslog message, this counter is incremented.
flushes
The number of times the Syslog buffer has been cleared by the clear logging
command. Refer to
“Clearing the Syslog messages from the local buffer”
overruns
The number of times the dynamic log buffer has filled up and been cleared to
hold new entries. For example, if the buffer is set for 100 entries, the 101st entry
causes an overrun. After that, the 201st entry causes a second overrun.
level
The message levels that are enabled. Each letter represents a message type and
is identified by the key (level code) below the value. If you disable logging of a
message level, the code for that level is not listed.
messages logged
The total number of messages that have been logged since the software was
loaded.
level code
The message levels represented by the one-letter codes.
