Synchronizing Log Messages
You can congure the system to lter and consolidate the system messages for a specic line by synchronizing the message output.
Only the messages with a severity at or below the set level appear. This feature works on the terminal and console connections available on
the system.
1 Enter LINE mode.
CONFIGURATION mode
line {console 0 | vty number [end-number]}
Congure the following parameters for the virtual terminal lines:
number: the range is from zero (0) to 9.
end-number: the range is from 1 to 8.
You can congure multiple virtual terminals at one time by entering a number and an end-number.
2 Congure a level and set the maximum number of messages to print.
LINE mode
logging synchronous [level severity-level | all] [limit]
Congure the following optional parameters:
level severity-level: the range is from 0 to 7. The default is 2. Use the all keyword to include all messages.
limit: the range is from 20 to 300. The default is 20.
To view the logging synchronous conguration, use the show config command in LINE mode.
Enabling Timestamp on Syslog Messages
By default, syslog messages do not include a time/date stamp stating when the error or message was created.
To enable timestamp, use the following command.
Add timestamp to syslog messages.
