(config) logging
• priority-code is the severity level of the message that should be sent to the specified remote syslog
host. The default priority-code is “warning” (level 4). Each syslog host is capable of receiving a
different level of event messages.
Note You can achieve syslog host redundancy by configuring multiple syslog hosts on the WAAS device and
assigning the same priority code to each configured syslog host (for example, assigning a priority code
of “critical” level 2 to syslog host 1, syslog host 2, and syslog host 3).
• port is the destination port of the remote syslog host to which the WAAS device is to send the
messages. The default port is port 514.
• rate-limit specifies the number of messages that are allowed to be sent to the remote syslog host per
second. To limit bandwidth and other resource consumption, messages to the remote syslog host can
be rate limited. If this limit is exceeded, the specified remote syslog host drops the messages. There
is no default rate limit, and by default all syslog messages are sent to all of the configured syslog
hosts. If the rate limit is exceeded, a “message of the day” (motd) will be printed for any CLI EXEC
shell login.
Examples In the following example, the WAAS device is configured to send messages that have a priority code of
“error” (level 3) to the console:
WAE(config)# logging console priority error
In the following example, the WAAS device is configured to disable sending of messages that have a
priority code of “error” (level 3) to the console:
WAE(config)# no logging console error
In the following example, the WAAS device is configured to send messages that have a priority code of
“error” (level 3) to the remote syslog host that has an IP address of 172.31.2.160:
WAE(config)# logging host 172.31.2.160 priority error
