Information Center Overview 1121
To sum up, the major task of the information center is to output the three types of
information of the modules onto the ten channels in terms of the eight severity
levels and according to the user’s settings, and then redirect the ten information
channels to the seven output directions.
System Information
Format
System information has the following format:
<priority>timestamp sysname module/level/digest:content
n
The closing set of angel brackets < >, the space, the forward slash /, and the
colon are all required, and the percent sign % is optional in the above format.
Before the <priority> may have %, "#, or * followed with a space, indicating
log, alarm, or debug information respectively.
Below is an example of the format of log information to be output to a log host:
% <188>Sep 28 15:33:46:235 2005 3Com SHELL/5/LOGIN: Console login from con0
What follows is a detailed explanation of the fields involved:
Priority
The priority is calculated using the following formula: facility*8+severity, in which
facility is local7 by default and the range of severity is 0 to 7.
Table 42 details the
value and meaning associated with each severity.
Note that there is no space between the priority and timestamp fields and that the
priority takes effect only when the information has been sent to the log host.
