III. Configuration procedure
Before the configuration, make sure that there is a route between Device and PC.
1) Configuring the device
# Enable information center.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] info-center enable
# Specify the host with IP address 1.2.0.1/16 as the log host, use channel loghost to
output log information (optional, loghost by default), and specify local4 as the logging
facility.
[Sysname] info-center loghost 1.2.0.1 channel loghost facility local4
# Disable the output of log, trap, and debugging information of all modules on the
channel loghost.
[Sysname] info-center source default channel loghost debug state off log state
off trap state off
Caution:
As the default system configurations for different channels are different, you need to
disable the output of log, trap, and debugging information of all modules on the
specified channel (loghost in this example) first and then configure the output rule as
needed so that unnecessary information will not be output.
# Configure the information output rule: allow log information of ARP and IP modules
with severity equal to or higher than informational to be output to the log host.
[Sysname] info-center source arp channel loghost log level informational state
on
[Sysname] info-center source ip channel loghost log level informational state
on
2) Configuring the log host
The following configurations were performed on SunOS 4.0 which has similar
configurations to the Unix operating systems implemented by other vendors.
Step 1: Issue the following commands as a root user.
# mkdir /var/log/MyDevice
# touch /var/log/MyDevice/information
Step 2: Edit the file /etc/syslog.conf as a root user and add the following selector/action
pair.
