It permits any terminal logged on to a switch to receive real-time Syslog messages when the
terminal monitor command is issued.
Configuring the Syslog service
The procedures in this section describe how to perform the following Syslog configuration tasks:
• Specify a Syslog server. You can configure the device to use up to six Syslog servers. (Use of a
Syslog server is optional. The system can hold up to 1000 Syslog messages in an internal
buffer.)
• Change the level of messages the system logs.
• Change the number of messages the local Syslog buffer can hold.
• Display the Syslog configuration.
• Clear the local Syslog buffer.
Logging is enabled by default, with the following settings:
• Messages of all severity levels (Emergencies – Debugging) are logged.
• By default, up to 50 messages are retained in the local Syslog buffer. This can be changed.
• No Syslog server is specified.
Displaying the Syslog configuration
To display the Syslog parameters currently in effect on a device, enter the following command from
any level of the CLI.
