The 6SSRM-02 writes the SYSLOG messages to a SYSLOG daemon on UDP port 514. You can
set the CLI to send all or only some of the message types. By default, the CLI sends warning,
error, and fatal messages but not informational messages to the specified SYSLOG server.
Use the following procedure to specify the SYSLOG server and the types of messages you want
the CLI to log on the server.
1. Ensure that you are in Enable mode by entering the enable command in the CLI.
2. Use the following command to verify that the 6SSRM-02 can reach the SYSLOG server by
pinging the server:
<IP-addr>
ping
3. Ensure that you are in Configure mode by entering the configure command in the CLI.
4. If you have not already done so, use the interface add ip command to set the IP address and
netmask for the en0 Ethernet interface, as shown in the following example:
ssr(config)# interface add ip en0 address-netmask 10.50.11.22/16
Note: The en0 interface is automatically created by the system and is reserved for the
6SSRM-02's management port.
5. Use the following commands to "add" the SYSLOG server to the 6SSRM-02, set the message
level, and set the SYSLOG facility:
system set syslog server
system set syslog level fatal|error|warning|info
system set syslog facility
Here is an example:
ctron-ssr-1# config
ctron-ssr-1(config)# system set syslog server 10.50.11.12
ctron-ssr-1(config)# system set syslog level info
ctron-ssr-1(config)# system set syslog facility local0
<hostname-or-IP-addr>
<facility-type>
