SWITCH LOGGING
LOCAL LOGGING
The switch maintains 1,000 messages in its internal log. You can display a snapshot of the log at any time by using the command
show log {<priority>} {<subsystem>}
where the following is true:
•priority — Filters the log to display message with the selected priority or higher (more critical). Priorities include critical, warning, and informational. If not specified, informational priority messages and higher are displayed.
•subsystem — Filters the log to display messages associated with the selected switch subsystem. Subsystems include Syst, STP Brdg, SNMP, Telnet, VLAN, and Port. If not specified, all subsystems are displayed.
In addition to viewing a snapshot of the switch log, you can configure the switch to maintain a running
enable log display
To configure the log display, use the following command:
config log display {<priority>} {<subsystem>}
If priority is not specified, only messages of critical priority are displayed. If the subsystem is not specified, all subsystems are displayed.
If you enable the log display on a terminal connected to the console port, your settings will remain in effect even after your console session is ended (unless you explicitly disable the log display).
When using a Telnet connection, if your Telnet session is disconnected (because of the inactivity timer, or for other reasons), the log display is automatically halted. You must restart the log display by using the enable log display command.
