Set Log Command

Specifies the type of entries to be entered in the event log. The log is a storage file contained on the switch. The log can hold a maximum of 200 entries. When the log becomes full, the entries are replaced, starting with the oldest entry, to produce a list of the last 200 events which occurred. Log entries are created for ports, components, and event severity levels.
