Configuring logging

You can enable or disable logging, configure the size of the local log buffer, and specify a Syslog
server, by entering the logging command.

To disable logging of SNMP traps to a locally saved event log, enter the following command.

Virtual ADX(config)#no logging on

To re-enable logging, enter the following command.

Virtual ADX(config)#logging on

By default, a message is logged whenever a user logs into or out of the CLI User EXEC or Privileged
EXEC mode. To disable logging of users’ CLI access, enter the following command.

Virtual ADX(config)#no logging enable user-login

To specify two third-party Syslog servers to receive Syslog messages in addition to the device’s local
Syslog buffer, enter the following commands.

Virtual ADX(config)#logging 10.0.0.99

Virtual ADX(config)#logging 10.157.23.69

To change the logging facility from the default facility user to local7, enter the following command.
