Displaying the syslog configuration and static and dynamic buffers

For information about configuring Syslog, see the Configuration Guide.
To display the Syslog parameters currently in effect on a system, enter the following
command from any level of the CLI:
FastIron> show logging
Syslog logging: enabled (0 messages dropped, 0 flushes, 0 overruns)
Buffer logging: level ACDMEINW, 7 messages logged
level code: A=alert C=critical D=debugging M=emergency E=error
I=informational N=notification W=warning
Syntax: show logging
The Syslog display shows the following configuration information, in the rows above
the log entries themselves.

Static and dynamic buffers

The software provides two separate buffers:
v Static - logs power supply failures, fan failures, and temperature warning or
v Dynamic - logs all other message types
In the static log, new messages replace older ones, so only the most recent
message is displayed. For example, only the most recent temperature warning

The state (enabled or disabled) of the Syslog buffer.
The number of Syslog messages dropped due to user-configured filters. By
default, the software logs messages for all Syslog levels. You can disable
individual Syslog levels, in which case the software filters out messages at
those levels. Each time the software filters out a Syslog message, this
counter advances by increments.
The number of times the Syslog buffer has been cleared by the clear
logging command. To read additional information about clearing the Syslog
buffer, see "Static and dynamic buffers."
The number of times the dynamic log buffer has filled up and been cleared
to hold new entries. for example, if the buffer is set for 100 entries, the
101st entry causes an overrun. After that, the 201st entry causes a second
overrun.
The message levels that are enabled. Each letter represents a message
type and is identified by the key (level code) below the value. If you disable
logging of a message level, the code for that level is not listed.
The total number of messages that have been logged since the software
was loaded.
The message levels represented by the one-letter codes.
