Configure the parameters:
• Persistence—Click Enable to save system logs to nonvolatile memory so that the logs
are kept when the WAP device reboots. You can save up to 128 log messages in the
nonvolatile memory. When the limit of 128 is reached, the oldest log message is
overwritten by the newest message. Clear this field to save system logs to volatile
memory. Logs in volatile memory are deleted when the system reboots.
• Severity—The minimum severity that an event must have for it to be written to the log
in nonvolatile memory. For example, if you specify 2 (critical), then critical, alert, and
emergency events are logged to nonvolatile memory. Error messages with a severity
level of 3 to 7 are written to volatile memory.
• Depth—The maximum number of messages, up to 512, that can be stored in volatile
memory. When the number you configure in this field is reached, the oldest log event is
overwritten by the newest log event. Note that the maximum number of log messages
that can be stored in nonvolatile memory (the persistent log) is 128, which is not
configurable.
Click Save. The changes are saved to the Startup Configuration.
