Chapter 30 Configuring System Message Logging
Configuring System Message Logging
Use the show archive log config {all | number [end-number] | user username [ session number] number
[end-number] | statistics} [provisioning] privileged EXEC command to display the complete
configuration log or the log for specified parameters.
The default is that configuration logging is disabled.
For information about the commands, see the Cisco IOS Configuration Fundamentals and Network
Management Command Reference, Release 12.3 T.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable configuration loggi ng:
This example shows how to enable the configuration-chan ge logger and to set the number of entries in
the log to 500.
Switch(config)# archive
Switch(config-archive)# log config
Switch(config-archive-log-cfg)# logging enable
Switch(config-archive-log-cfg)# logging size 500
Switch(config-archive-log-cfg)# end
This is an example of output for the configuration log:
Switch# show archive log config all
