578 Appendix A: Troubleshooting a WS Switch
Using Log Commands
To enable, disable, or modify system logging to the WSS switch's log buffer, console, current Telnet session, or trace
buffer, use the following command:
set log {buffer | console | current | sessions | trace} [severity severity-level]
[enable | disable]
To enable, disable, or modify system logging to a syslog server, use the following command:
set log server ip-addr [severity severity-level [local-facility facility-name]] [enable | disable]
To view log entries in the system or trace buffer, use the following command:
show log buffer | trace
To clear log messages from the system or trace buffer, use the following command:
clear log buffer | trace
To stop sending messages to a syslog server, use the following command:
clear log server ip-addr
Logging to the Log Buffer
The system log consists of rolling entries stored as a last-in first-out queue maintained by the WSS. Logging to the
buffer is enabled by default for events at the error level and higher.
To modify settings to another severity level, use the following command:
set log buffer severity severity-level
For example, to set logging to the buffer for events at the warning level and higher, type the following command:
23x0# set log buffer severity warning
success: change accepted.
To view log entries in the system log buffer, use the following command:
show log buffer [{+|-} number-of-messages] [facility facility-name] [matching string]
[severity severity-level]
You can display the most recent messages or the oldest messages:
•
Type a positive number (for example, +100) to display that number of log entries starting from the oldest in the log.
•
Type a negative number (for example, -100) to display that number of log entries starting from the newest in the
log.
You can search for strings by using the keyword matching and typing any string, such as a username or IP address.
You can display event information at a particular severity level. (See
levels.)
For example, the following command displays all messages at the error severity level or higher:
23x0# show log buffer severity error
