ExtremeWare 7.2e Installation and User Guide 133
enable log target [console-display | memory-buffer | nvram | session | syslog [<host
name/ip> {:<udp-port>} [local0 ... local7]]]
disable log target [console-display | memory-buffer | nvram | session | syslog
[<host name/ip> {:<udp-port>} [local0 ... local7]]]
Note that the existing command enable log display applies only to the serial port console. Since the
ability to display log messages on other sessions was added, the target name
session was chosen. For
clarity, the target name
console-display was chosen to refer to the serial port console, previously
referred to as simply
display.
Configure log display
The following command related to the serial port console:
configure log display {<severity>}
is equivalent to:
configure log target console-display severity <severity>
Remote syslog commands
The following command related to remote syslog hosts:
configure syslog {add} <host name/ip> {: <udp-port>} [local0 ... local7] {<severity>}
is equivalent to the following two commands:
configure syslog add <hostname/IP> {: <udp-port>} [local0 ... local7]
configure log target syslog <hostname/IP> {: <udp-port>} [local0 ... local7] severity
<severity>
NOTE
Refer to your UNIX documentation for more information about the syslog host facility.
Logging Configuration Changes
ExtremeWare allows you to record all configuration changes and their sources that are made using the
CLI by way of telnet or the local console. The changes cause events that are logged to the target logs.
Each log entry includes the user account name that performed the change and the source IP address of
the client (if telnet was used). Configuration logging applies only to commands that result in a
configuration change. To enable configuration logging, use the following command:
enable cli-config-logging
To disable configuration logging, use the following command:
disable cli-config-logging
CLI configuration logging is enabled by default.
