Setting Telnet session defaults

Session logging is disabled by default, and the event level is set to information (info) or higher. To enable event logging
to Telnet sessions and change the default event severity level, use the following command:

Changing the current Telnet session defaults

By default, log information is not sent to your current Telnet session, and the log level is set to information (info) or
higher. To modify the severity of events logged to your current Telnet session, use the following command from within
the session:
set log current severity severity-level
(For information about severity levels, see

Logging to the trace buffer

Trace logging is enabled by default and stores debug-level output in the WSS trace buffer. To modify trace logging to an
event level higher than debug, use the following command:
set log trace severity severity-level
To disable trace logging, use the following command:
set log trace disable

Enabling mark messages

You can configure WSS Software to generate mark messages at regular intervals. The mark messages indicate the
current system time and date. Nortel can use the mark messages to determine the approximate time when a system restart
or other event causing a system outage occurred.
