Logging Configuration Changes

ExtremeWare allows you to record all configuration changes and their sources that are made using the
CLI by way of Telnet or the local console. The changes are logged to the system log. Each log entry
includes the user account name that performed the change and the source IP address of the client (if
Telnet was used). Configuration logging applies only to commands that result in a configuration
change. To enable configuration logging, use the following command:

enable cli-config-logging

To disable configuration logging, use the following command:

disable cli-config-logging

CLI configuration logging is enabled by default.
