Setting SYSLOG Parameters

Here is an example of the commands above featuring the addition of two DNS server IP
addresses:
ctron-ssr-1# config
ctron-ssr-1(config)# system set dns domain "mktg.cabletron.com"
ctron-ssr-1(config)# system set dns server "10.50.11.12 10.50.12.11"
ctron-ssr-1(config)# save active
8. Enter the system show dns command to verify the new DNS settings, as shown in the following
example:
ctron-ssr-1# system show dns
DNS domain: cabletron.com, DNS server(s): 10.50.11.12 10.50.12.11
9. Use the ping command to verify that the 6SSRM-02 can resolve the DNS server name into its
IP address, as shown in the following example:
ctron-ssr-1# ping ssr1
PING ssr1.mktg.cabletron.com (10.50.11.12): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 10.50.11.12: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=0 ms
--- ssr1.mktg.cabletron.com ping statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 1 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 0/0/0 ms
Setting SYSLOG Parameters
The CLI can use SYSLOG messages to communicate the following types of messages to a
SYSLOG server:
• Fatal – Provide information about events that caused the 6SSRM-02 to crash and reset.
• Error – Provide information about errors.
• Warning – Provide warnings against invalid configuration information and other conditions
that are not necessarily errors. This is the default.
• Informational – Provide informational messages such as status messages. The SYSLOG
messages that the 6SSRM-02 displays while booting the software and reading the startup
configuration file are examples of Informational messages.
