Syslog
This section provides information about the Syslog feature.
Overview
Syslog:
Allows you to store system messages and/or errors
Can store to local files on the switch or a remote server running a syslog daemon
Method of collecting message logs from many systems
Persistent Log Files
Currently three - one for each of the last three sessions
Each log has two parts:
Start up log is the first 32 messages after system startup
Operational log is the last 32 messages received after the startup log is full
Files are stored in ASCII format
slog0.txt - slog2.txt
olog0.txt - olog2.txt
Where 0 is for the boot, 1 is for the last boot, 2 is for the boot before that; the third one
overflows upon the next boot.
Can be saved to local server to monitor at a later point in time
