Setting up Syslog
This section describes how to set up Syslog options. Syslog is a tool that records operational
data, unusual system occurrences, system commands, and messages. To set up your system’s
Syslog options:
1 To enable Syslog, use a command line interface run over the network (such as telnet) or
use a serial line connection to the base station.
2 At an sNNOS command prompt, issue the following command to enable Syslog:
set syslog state enabled
3 Specify the level for the functions whose syslog events can be reported. To specify the
level of the messages:
set syslog {function} level {variable}
where:
{function} is the feature whose level you want to set. Functions you can specify include
airlink , config , nnmgr , reg mgr , and relay .
{variable} is the level, with a value of
0 , 3 , 4 , 5 , or 7 .
For further information about the functions and Syslog levels, refer to the guide “Using
the NextNet Operating System (NNOS).”
4 To set the Syslog port number:
set syslog port 514
