Configure the Event Log
You can customize what events are recorded in the switch event log according to
component, severity level, and port. Enter the Set Log Component, Set Log Level,
and Set Log Port commands to filter the events to be recorded. You can choose
from the following component events:
 E_Port events
 Management server events
 Name server events
 Port events
 Switch management events
 Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) events
 Zoning events
The following example configures the event log to record switch management
events with warning and critical severity levels associated with ports 0–3. Entering
the Set Log Save command ensures that this configuration is preserved across
switch resets.
