log_user

log_uucp

log_local0-7

level Speci®es a value that, in conjunction with thefacility value, is used by the syslog daemon in the remote workstation to determine where to log messages. This value is used for all remotely-logged ELS messages unless you specify a different value for a particular ELS event, range, group, or subsystem with the remote command.

These are all possible syslog level values:

log_emerg

log_alert

log_crit

log_err

log_warning

log_notice

log_info

log_debug

no-msgs

Speci®es the number of messages in the buffer for the remote log before log wraps.

remote_ip_addr

This is an ip address of the form xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx where xxx can be any integer 0 to 255. It represents the ip address of the remote host where the log ®les reside.

source_ip_addr

This is an ip address of the form xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx where xxx can be any integer 0 to 255.

You should use an IP address that is con®gured in the 2210 for easier identi®cation when the IP address or the hostname is shown in the remotely-logged ELS message. You should also verify that this IP address is quickly resolved to a hostname by the name server, or at least that the name server responds quickly with ªaddress not found.º

To determine that the IP address resolves properly enter the host command on your workstation as shown:

workstation>host 5.1.1.1

host: address 5.1.1.1 NOT FOUND workstation>

If the response takes more than 1 second, select an IP address that resolves more quickly.

local_id

This is any character string of up to 32 characters, which is
