Deployment Guide

5.6.2.2 set logging level

Sets the level that log messages are generated for during runtime. This only changes the values during this run

of the system. To make this persistent in the running configuration use the set default logging level

command. See the example below:

FJ6K0Z1_console> set logging level

set logging level command: valid levels are 0-7

5.6.3 Enable or Change Default Logging Levels/Components

Default logging values allow the users to set persistent values into the switch’s running-configuration for the

initial state of logging when the switch initially loads. This allows the initial configuration of the logging

components to be set to a user configurable value, while the runtime log levels can be changed as needed to

debug the system.

5.6.3.1 set default logging component

set default logging component

Sets the logging components in the running configuration to be used as the initial configuration when the

switch loads. It has the same range of values that the set logging component level has.

5.6.3.2 set default logging level

set default logging level

Sets the logging level in the running configuration to be used as the initial configuration when the switch

loads. It has the same range of values that the set logging level has.

5.6.4 Syslog Configuration

As mentioned previously, there are currently no user accessible local logs kept in DNOS-OF, so setting up the

external syslog is very important if you want to actually see the log entries you have configured.

ZBA123_console> set ip syslog service <IP address> <IP port> – enables logging to the remote syslog server

Without a valid argument, logging level gives this message:

ZBA123_console> set logging level

set logging level command: valid levels are 0-7

NOT setting to level -1

With a valid argument, logging level gives this message:

ZBA123_console> set logging level 4

logging level set to 4

Sets the address and port for remote syslog from the management port.

5.7 Switch Configuration Storage

There are 3 configuration files used by DNOS-OF to control switch configuration: startup-config, running-

config, and backup-config. These store the configuration data in standard JSON object format. Note that

password is stored encrypted.
