Specifying the System syslog Dump Flash Device and Filename

You can change the flash device and the filename when the syslog dump is enabled or disabled. If you
only specify the flash device, the filename is automatically set to sysloginfo. If you do not specify the
flash device or the filename, the previous filename for the syslog dump is cleared and the default flash
device and filename (slot0:sysloginfo) are used.
To specify the flash device and filename for the system syslog dump, perform this task in privileged
mode:
