Specify types of OSPF Syslog messages to log
You can specify which kinds of OSPF-related Syslog messages are logged. By default, the only OSPF
messages that are logged are those indicating possible system errors. If you want other kinds of
OSPF messages to be logged, you can configure the device to log them.
For example, to specify that all OSPF-related Syslog messages be logged, enter the following
commands.
BigIron RX(config)# router ospf
BigIron RX(config-ospf-router)# log all
Syntax: [no] log all | adjacency | bad_packet [checksum] | database | memory | retransmit
The log command has the following options:
The all option causes all OSPF-related Syslog messages to be logged. If you later disable this option
with the no log all command, the OSPF logging options return to their default settings.
The adjacency option logs essential OSPF neighbor state changes, especially on error cases. This
option is disabled by default.
The bad_packet checksum option logs all OSPF packets that have checksum errors. This option is
enabled by default.
The bad_packet option logs all other bad OSPF packets. This option is disabled by default.
The database option logs OSPF LSA-related information. This option is disabled by default.
The memory option logs abnormal OSPF memory usage. This option is enabled by default.
The retransmit option logs OSPF retransmission activities. This option is disabled by default.
