To have FTOS include a timestamp with the syslog message, use the following command syntax in the
CONFIGURATION mode:
To view the configuration, use the
show running-config logging command in the EXEC privilege mode.
To disable time stamping on syslog messages, enter
no service timestamps [log | debug].
File Transfer Services
With FTOS, you can configure the system to transfer files over the network using File Transfer Protocol
(FTP). One FTP application is copying the system image files over an interface on to the system; however,
FTP is not supported on VLAN interfaces.
For more information on FTP, refer to RFC 959,
File Transfer Protocol.
Configuration Task List for File Transfer Services
The following list includes the configuration tasks for file transfer services:
• Enable FTP server (mandatory)
• Configure FTP server parameters (optional)
• Configure FTP client parameters (optional)
For a complete listing of FTP related commands, refer to the
FTOS Command Line Reference Guide, Control
and Monitoring chapter.
