• logging {ip4-address | ip6-address |hostname} [port port] [severity level] [facility facility] [description
text]
• no logging {ip4-address | ip6-address | hostname}
• ip4-address — Host IPv4 address to be used as a syslog server.
• ip6-address — Host IPv6 address to be used as a syslog server. When the IPv6 address is a Link
Local address (IPv6Z address), the outgoing interface name must be specified. Refer to the usage
guidelines for the interface name syntax.
• hostname — Hostname of the host to be used as a syslog server. (Range: 1 - 158 characters)
• port — Port number for syslog messages. If unspecified, the port number defaults to 514. (Range:
1 - 65535)
• severity level — Limits the logging of messages to the syslog servers to a specified level:
emergencies, alerts, critical, errors, warnings, notifications, informational and debugging. If
unspecified, the default level is errors.
• facility — The facility that is indicated in the message. Can be one of the following values: local0,
local1, local2, local3, local4, local5, local 6, local7. If unspecified, the port number defaults to

Command Mode
Global Configuration mode.
User Guidelines
• Multiple syslog servers can be used.
• If no specific severity level is specified, the global values apply to each server.
• The IPv6Z address format: <ipv6-link-local-address>%<interface-name>
– interface-name — vlan<integer> | ch<integer> | isatap<integer> | <physical-port-name> | 0
– integer — <decimal-number> | <integer><decimal-number>
– decimal-number — 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9
– physical-port-name — Designated port number, for example g1.
If the egress interface is not specified, the default interface is selected. Specifying interface zone=0 is
the same as not defining an egress interface.
