Troubleshooting Debug/Syslog Operation Debug/Syslog Operation While the Event Log records switch-level progress, status, and warning messages on the switch, the Debug/System Logging (Syslog) feature provides a way to record Event Log and debug messages on a remote device. For example, you can send messages about routing misconfigurations and other network protocol details to an external device, and later use them to debug network-level problems. Debug/Syslog Messaging The Debug/Syslog feature allows you to specify the types of Event Log and debug messages that you want to send to an external device. As shown in Figure C-8, you can perform the following operations: ■ Use the debug command to configure messaging reports for the following event types: • Dynamic ARP protection events • DHCP snooping events • Events recorded in the switch's Event Log • IPv4 routing events • LLDP events • OSPF events • SSH events • VRRP events • Wireless Services events ■ Use the logging command to select a subset of Event Log messages to send to an external device for debugging purposes according to: • Severity level • System module Debug/Syslog Destination Devices To use Debug/Syslog messaging, you must configure an external device as the logging destination by using the logging and debug destination commands. For more information, see "Debug Destinations" on page C-47 and "Configuring a Syslog Server" on page C-49. C-37
