814 CHAPTER 71: INFORMATION CENTER
Notice: There is a slash (’/’) between module name and severity.
6 Severity
Switch information falls into three categories: log information, debugging
information and trap information. The information center classifies every kind of
information into 8 severity or urgent levels. The log filtering rule is that the system
prohibits outputting the information whose severity level is greater than the set
threshold. The more urgent the logging packet is, the smaller its severity level is.
The level represented by "emergencies" is 1, and that represented by
"debugging" is 8. Therefore, when the threshold of the severity level is
"debugging", the system will output all the information.
Definition of severity in logging information is as followed.
Notice: There is a slash between severity and digest.
7 Digest
The digest is abbreviation, it represent the abstract of contents.
Notice: There is a colon between digest and content. The digest can be up to 32
characters long.
