System logs record network and device information, including running status and configuration changes. With system logs, administrators can take corresponding actions against network problems and security problems.

The system sends system logs to the following destinations:

Console

Monitor terminal, a terminal that has logged in to the device through the AUX or VTY user interface

Log buffer

Log host

Web interface

Log file

You can click Refresh to manually refresh the page, or you can set the refresh interval on the Log Setup page to enable the system to automatically refresh the page periodically.
