Event Logs and Syslog Client
This chapter describes how to view switch activity by displaying and saving
the contents of the event logs. It also explains how to send events to
syslog servers on your network by creating syslog output definitions.
Sections in the chapter include:
“Working with the Event Logs” on page 120
“Working with Syslog Output Definitions” on page 129
Note
The event logs, even when disabled, log all AT-S63 initialization
events that occur when the switch is reset or power cycled. Any
switch events that occur after AT-S63 initialization are entered into
the logs only if the event log feature is enabled, which is the default
setting for this feature.
