Using Syslog Messaging to Monitor Router Events
303561-A Rev 00
C-41
Parameter: Log Evt Upper Bound
Attribute Name: wfSyslogEntFltrLogEvtUppBnd
Attribute Number: 8
Default: 255
Range: 0 to 255
Function: Along with the Log Evt Lower Bound, this parameter specifies an event
number (code) or range of event numbers. The numbers correspond to
event messages you want to forward to the remote host associated with
this filter.
For a complete list of event codes for each entity, see
Event Messages for
Routers
for this version of the router software.
Instructions: To specify a range of event numbers that identify messages you want to
forward to a remote host, set the value of this parameter to the high
number of the range. Set the value of the wfSyslogEntFltrLogEvtLowBnd
(Log Event Upper Bound) parameter to the low number of the range.
Any range you specify includes the values for the lower and upper bound
parameters. For example, if you specify a lower bound of 2 and an upper
bound of 7, Syslog forwards all messages with event codes of 2 through 7,
logged by the entity defined under wfSyslogEntFltrNum (Filter Entity
Name). Syslog ignores all other event messages.
To filter (select only) a specific event, set the value of
wfSyslogEntFltrLogEvtUppBnd to the code number for that event. Set
the value of wfSyslogEntFltrLogEvtLowBnd (Log Event Lower Bound)
to the same code number. For example, to forward only log messages that
have an event code of 10, enter 10 as the value of
wfSyslogEntFltrLogEvtUppBnd and as the value of the
wfSyslogEntFltrLogEvtLowBnd (Log Event Lower Bound).
If you do not want to filter by event code, accept the upper and lower
boundary default values of 0 and 255. In this case, Syslog checks for
filtering criteria based on a message severity mask
(wfSyslogEntFltrSevMask).
If you specify lower and upper boundary values of 255 (the wildcard
entity number), Syslog ignores this attribute as filtering criterion.
