Troubleshooting
Debug/Syslog Operation
lldp
ssh
Sends LLDP debug logging to the debug destination(s).
Sends SSH debug messages at the specified level to the debug destination. The
levels are fatal, error, info, verbose, debug, debug2, and debug3.
Figure C-8. Summary of Debug/Syslog Configuration Commands
Using the Debug/Syslog feature, you can perform the following operations:
■ Configure the switch to send Event Log messages to one or more Syslog
servers. In addition, you can configure the messages to be sent to the User
log facility (default) or to another log facility on configured Syslog servers.
Note As of November 2008, the logging facility < facility-name > option (described on
page C-44) is supported on the following switch models:
■ 8212zl switch
■ Series 6400cl switches
■ 6200yl Switch
■ Series 5400zl switches
■ Series 5300xl switches
■ Series 4200vl switches
■ Series 4100gl switches (software release G.07.50 or greater)
■ Series 3500yl switches
■ Series 3400cl switches
■ Series 2910al switches
■ Series 2900 switches
■ Series 2800 switches
■ Series 2610 switches
■ Series 2600 switches and the Switch 6108 (software release H.07.30 or
greater)
■ Series 2520 switches
For the latest feature information on ProCurve switches, visit the ProCurve
Networking web site and check the latest release notes for the switch products
you use.
■ Configure the switch to send Event Log messages to the current manage-
ment-access session (serial-connect CLI, Telnet CLI, or SSH).
■ Disable all Syslog debug logging while retaining the Syslog addresses from
the switch configuration. This allows you to configure Syslog messaging
and then disable and re-enable it as needed.
