Debug/Syslog Operation
Configuring the System Module Used to Select the Event Log
Messages Sent to a Syslog Server
Event Log messages contain the name of the system module that reported the
event. Using the logging system-module command, you can select a set of Event
Log messages according to the originating system module and send them to a
Syslog server. To configure a Syslog server, see “Configuring a Syslog Server”
on page C-41.
Using the logging system-module command, you can select messages from only
one system module to be sent to a Syslog server. You cannot configure
messages from multiple system modules to be sent. If you re-enter the
command with a different system module name, the currently configured
value is replaced with the new one.
Syntax: [no] logging system-module < system-module >
Configures the switch to send all Event Log messages being
logged from the specified system module to configured
Syslog servers.
Refer to Table C-1 on page C-27 for the correct value to enter
for each system module.
Default: all-pass (Reports all Event Log messages.)
Use the no form of the command to remove the configured
system module value and reconfigure the default value,
which sends Event Log messages from all system modules
to Syslog servers.
Note: This setting has no effect on event notification
messages that the switch normally sends to the Event Log.
