Debug/Syslog Operation

ProCurve(config)# show debug

Debug Logging

Destination:

Logging -- 10.28.38.164 Facility=kern Severity=warning System module=all-pass Enabled debug types: event

Figure C-9. Sample Output of show debug Command

Example: In the following example, no Syslog servers are configured on the switch (default setting). When you configure a Syslog server, debug logging is enabled to send Event Log messages to the server. To limit the Event Log messages sent to the Syslog server, specify a set of messages by entering the logging severity and logging system-modulecommands.

ProCurve(config)# show debug

Debug Logging

Destination: None

Enabled debug types:

None are enabled

ProCurve(config)# logging 10.28.38.164 ProCurve(config)# write memory ProCurve(config)# show debug

Debug Logging

Destination:

Logging -- 10.28.38.164 Facility=user Severity=debug System module=all-pass Enabled debug types: event

Displays the default debug configuration. (No Syslog server IP addresses or debug types are configured.)

When you configure a Syslog IP address with the logging command, by default, the switch enables debug messaging to the Syslog address and the user facility on the Syslog server, and sends Event Log messages of all severity levels from all system modules.

You can enter the logging severity and logging system-modulecommands to specify a subset of Event Log messages to send to the Syslog server.

ProCurve(config)# logging severity error ProCurve(config)# logging system-module iplock
