Purpose
When saving the buffer content to another location,
the ASA and ASASM create log files with names that
use the following time-stamp format:
LOG-YYYY-MM-DD-HHMMSS.TXT
where YYYY is the year, MM is the month, DD is the
day of the month, and HHMMSS is the time in hours,
minutes, and seconds.
The ASA and ASASM continue saving new messages
to the internal log buffer and saves the full log buffer
content to an FTP server.
Identifies the FTP server on which you want to store
log buffer content. The server argument specifies the
IP address of the external FTP server. The path
argument specifies the directory path on the FTP
server where the log buffer data is to be saved. This
path is relative to the FTP root directory. The
username argument specifies a username that is valid
for logging into the FTP server. The password
argument indicates the password for the username
specified.
Saves the current log buffer content to the internal
flash memory.
Purpose
Specifies which syslog messages should be sent to an e-mail
address. When sent by e-mail, a syslog message appears in the
subject line of the e-mail message. For this reason, we
recommend configuring this option to notify administrators of
syslog messages with high severity levels, such as critical,
alert, and emergency.
Specifies the source e-mail address to be used when sending
syslog messages to an e-mail address.
