NETGEAR 8800 Chassis Switch CLI Manual Syntax Description ipaddress ipPort vr_name local0 ... local7 severity Specifies the remote syslog server IP address. Specifies the UDP port number for the syslog target. Specifies the virtual router that can reach the server IP address. Note: User-created VRs are supported only on the platforms listed for this feature in Appendix A in the NETGEAR 8800 User Manual. Specifies the local syslog facility. Specifies a message severity. Severities include critical, error, warning, notice, info, debug-summary, debug-verbose, and debug-data. Default If a severity level is not specified, all messages are sent to the remote syslog server target. If a virtual router is not specified, VR-Mgmt is used. If UDP port is not specified, 514 is used. Usage Guidelines Options for configuring the remote syslog server include: • ipaddress-The IP address of the remote syslog server host. • ipPort-The UDP port. • local0-local7-The syslog facility level for local use. • vr_name-The virtual router that can reach the syslog host. • severity-Filters the messages sent to the remote syslog server target to have the selected severity or higher (more critical). Severities include critical, error, warning, notice, info, debug-summary, debug-verbose, and debug-data. The switch log overwrites existing log messages in a wrap-around memory buffer, which may cause you to lose valuable information once the buffer becomes full. The remote syslog server does not overwrite log information, and can store messages in non-volatile files (disks, for example). The enable syslog command must be issued in order for messages to be sent to the remote syslog server(s). Syslog is disabled by default. A total of four syslog servers can be configured at one time. When a syslog server is added, it is associated with the filter DefaultFilter. Use the configure log target filter command to associate a different filter. The syslog facility level is defined as local0 - local7. The facility level is used to group syslog data. Example The following command configures the remote syslog server target with a critical severity: Chapter 8. Commands for Status Monitoring and Statistics | 369
