Configuration Procedure
1 Configuration on the Switch
a Enabling info-center
[4500]info-center enable
b Set the host with the IP address of 202.38.1.10 as the loghost; set the severity
level threshold value as informational, set the output language to English; set
that the modules which are allowed to output information are ARP and IP.
[4500]info-center loghost 202.38.1.10 facility local4 language
english
[4500]info-center source arp channel loghost log level informational
[4500]info-center source ip channel loghost log level informational
2 Configuration on the loghost
This configuration is performed on the loghost. The following example is
performed on SunOS 4.0 and the operation on Unix operation system produced
by other manufactures is generally the same to the operation on SunOS 4.0.
a Perform the following command as the super user (root).
# mkdir /var/log/4500
# touch /var/log/4500/information
b Edit file /etc/syslog.conf as the super user (root), add the following
selector/actor pairs.
# 4500 configuration messages
local4.info /var/log/4500/information
Note the following points when editing /etc/syslog.conf:
(1) The note must occupy a line and start with the character #.
(2) There must be a tab other than a space as the separator in selector/actor pairs.
(3) No redundant space after file name.
(4) The device name and the acceptant log information level specified in
/etc/syslog.conf must be consistent with info-center loghost and info-center
loghost a.b.c.d facility configured on the Switch. Otherwise, the log information
probably cannot be output to the loghost correctly.
