For the latest feature information on ProCurve switches, visit the ProCurve Networking web site and check the latest release notes for the switch products you use.

Configure the switch to send Event Log messages to the current manage­ ment-access session (serial-connect CLI, Telnet CLI, or SSH).

Disable all Syslog debug logging while retaining the Syslog addresses from the switch configuration. This allows you to configure Syslog messaging and then disable and re-enable it as needed.

Display the current debug configuration. If Syslog logging is currently active, the list f configured Syslog servers is displayed.

Display the current Syslog server list when Syslog logging is disabled.Configuring Debug/Syslog Operation

1.To use a Syslog server as the destination device for debug messaging, follow these steps:

a.Enter the logging < syslog-ip-addr> command at the global configura­ tion level to configure the Syslog server IP address and enable Syslog logging. Optionally, you may also specify the destination subsystem to be used on the Syslog server by entering the logging facility command.

If no other Syslog server IP addresses are configured, entering the logging command enables both debug messaging to a Syslog server and the Event debug message type. As a result, the switch automati­ cally sends Event Log messages to the Syslog server, regardless of other debug types that may be configured.

b.Re-enter the logging command in Step “a” to configure additional Syslog servers. You can configure up to a total of six servers. (When multiple server IP addresses are configured, the switch sends the debug message types that you configure in Step 3 to all IP addresses.)
