Brocade Communications Systems 6650 manual Specifying an additional Syslog server

Syslog service configuration 10

Specifying an additional Syslog server

To specify an additional Syslog server, enter the logging host <ip-addr>command again. You can specify up to six Syslog servers.

Brocade(config)#logging host 10.0.0.99

Syntax: logging host <ip-addr> <server-name>

Disabling logging of a message level

To change the message level, disable logging of specific message levels. You must disable the message levels on an individual basis.

For example, to disable logging of debugging and informational messages, enter the following commands.

Brocade(config)#no logging buffered debugging

Brocade(config)#no logging buffered informational

Syntax: [no] logging buffered <level> <num-entries>

The <level> parameter can have one of the following values:

•alerts

•critical

•debugging

•emergencies

•errors

•informational

•notifications

•warnings

The commands in the example above change the log level to notification messages or higher. The software will not log informational or debugging messages. The changed message level also applies to the Syslog servers.

Changing the number of entries the local buffer can hold

You also can use the logging buffered command to change the number of entries the local Syslog buffer can store. For example.

Brocade(config)#logging buffered 100

Brocade(config)#write mem

Brocade(config)#exit

Brocade#reload

Syntax: logging buffered <num>

The default number of messages is 50.
