The Total number of Messages field displays the number of messages the system
logged in memory. By default, up to 160 (80 percent of the maximum of 200) of the
most recent entries can be displayed on the page.

The rest of the page displays the Memory Log messages. The format of the log
message is the same for messages that are displayed for the message log, persistent
log, or console log. Messages logged to a collector or relay through syslog support
the same format as well.

The following example shows the standard format for a log message:

<189> Jan 05 2021 00:00:18: AAA-5-CONNECT: New http connection

for user admin, source 192.168.1.111 ACCEPTED

The message was generated as severity 189 (Notice, level 5) on January 5, 2021 at
00:00:18 a.m. by component AAA. The message indicates that the administrator
successfully logged on to the HTTP management interface from a host with IP address
192.168.1.111.

The severity number in the message is generated by a combination of the facility
and the severity. In the previous example, the default facility of 23 is multiplied by
8 and the severity (5) is added: (23 * 8) + 5 = 189

Message log format

This topic applies to the format of all logged messages that are displayed for the message
log, persistent log, or console log.

Messages logged to a collector or relay through syslog use an identical format:

<15>Aug 24 05:34:05 0.0.0.0-1 MSTP[2110]: mspt_api.c(318) 237%% Interface 12
transitioned to root state on message age timer expiry.

This example indicates a message with severity 7 (15 mod 8) (debug) on a switch
and generated by component MSTP running in thread ID 2110 on Aug 24 05:34:05
by line 318 of file mstp_api.c. This is the 237th message logged with system IP 0.0.0.0
and task-ID 1.

<15>Aug 24 05:34:05 STK0 MSTP[2110]: mspt_api.c(318) 237%% Interface 12
transitioned to root state on message age timer expiry.

This example indicates a user-level message (1) with severity 7 (debug) on a system
that is not a switch and generated by component MSTP running in thread ID 2110
on Aug 24 05:34:05 by line 318 of file mstp_api.c. This is the 237th message logged.
