View

Parameter
interface-type: Interface type.
interface-number: Number of the interface.
subinterface-type: Subinterface type.
Description
Use the info-center loghost source command to specify the source address in the
packets destined to the log host.
Use the undo info-center loghost source command to cancel the current
configuration.
When a log message is sent out a router, its source address defaults to the IP address
of the interface where it is sent. You can change this address however using this
command. By assigning different source addresses to the packets sent by different
routers, you can discriminate them for retrieval convenience.
Example
# Set the IP address of loopback 0 as the source address of the log messages.
[3com] interface loopback 0
[3com-LoopBack0] ip address 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.0
[3com-LoopBack0] quit
[3com] info-center loghost source loopback 0
