Port logs
Fabric OS maintains an internal log of all port activity, with each switch or logical switch
maintaining a log file for each port. Port logs are circular buffers that can save up to 8000 entries
per logical switch. When the log is full, the newest log entries automatically overwrite the oldest log
entries. Port logs capture switch-to-device, device-to-switch, switch-to-switch, some device
A-to-device B, and control information. Port logs are not persistent and are lost over power cycles
and reboots. Port log functionality is completely separate from the system message log. Port logs
are typically used to troubleshoot device connections.
To display the port logs for a particular port, enter the portLogShow command.
To display the specific events logged for each port, enter the portLogEventShow command.
Changing the swEventTrap severity level
When an event occurs and the event severity level is at or below the set severity level, the SNMP
event trap notification, swEventTrap is sent to the configured trap recipients. By default, the
severity level is set at 0 (None), resulting in all the event traps being sent. Use the snmpConfig
--set mibCapability command to modify the severity level of swEventTrap.
To change the severity level of swEventTrap, perform the following steps.
