Viewing syslogd Events Logged by mip6mod: logevents
Use the logevents command to view syslogd events logged by mip6mod. The logevents command will display
the events when mip6mod is running, and also when it is not running.
Abbreviated: l[ogevents]
Syntax: logevents [-file log_file ] [-level log_level ]
Options: -f[ile] log_file
The fully-qualified (absolute) path of the syslogd logfile to view. If the -f
option is not used, the logevents command displays
/var/adm/syslog/syslog.log by default.
-l[evel] log_level
Indicates a specific level of the events to display. Repeat this option to
view multiple levels of events. If the -l option is not used, the logevents
command displays the events logged for all levels. The following is a list of
the levels in the mip6mod logging hierarchy:
a[lert] Logs messages for critical conditions requiring
immediate attention, for example, exceeding memory
space.
e[rror] Logs messages for error conditions, for example, when
the binding cache reaches maximum capacity.
w[arn] Logs messages for warning conditions, for example,
when dynamic configuration occurs.
i[nfo] Logs messages for informational conditions, for example,
when a binding cache entry is created.
d[ebug] Logs messages for debugging and troubleshooting
conditions, for example, when a mobility route is added.
Example: mip6admin -logevents -l warn
