CONFIGURING THE SWITCH

The facility type is used by the syslog server to dispatch log messages to an appropriate service.

The attribute specifies the facility type tag sent in syslog messages. (See RFC 3164.) This type has no effect on the kind of messages reported by the switch. However, it may be used by the syslog server to process messages, such as sorting or storing messages in the corresponding database. (Range: 16-23, Default: 23)

Logging Trap – Limits log messages that are sent to the remote syslog server for all levels up to the specified level. For example, if level 3 is specified, all messages from level 0 to level 3 will be sent to the remote server. (Range: 0-7, Default: 6)

Host IP List – Displays the list of remote server IP addresses that receive the syslog messages. The maximum number of host IP addresses allowed is five.

Host IP Address – Specifies a new server IP address to add to the Host IP List.
