Changing System Logging Settings
You can change the default settings of the system logging by changing the severity level and the storage
location. The default is to log all messages up to debug level, that is, all system messages. By changing the
severity level in the logging commands, you control the number of system messages logged.
To change the severity level of messages logged to a syslog server, use any or all of the following
commands in CONFIGURATION mode:
To view the logging buffer and configuration, enter the
show logging command in EXEC privilege mode
(Figure 5-1).
To view the logging configuration, enter the
show running-config logging command in EXEC privilege mode
(Figure 5-2).
