The Total Number of Messages field shows the total number of persistent log
messages that are stored on the switch. The maximum number of persistent log
messages displayed on the switch is 64.
The following example shows the standard format for a persistent log message:
Jan 12 2024 00:00:18: AAA-5-CONNECT: New http connection for
user admin, source 192.168.1.111 ACCEPTED
The message was generated as severity 189 (Notice, level 5) on January 12, 2024
at 00:00:18 a.m. by component AAA. The message indicates that the administrator
successfully logged on to the HTTP management interface from a host with IP address
192.168.1.111.
The severity number in the message is generated by a combination of the facility
and the severity. In the previous example, the default facility of 23 is multiplied by
8 and the severity (5) is added: (23 * 8) + 5 = 189

Syslog and log server host settings

You can let the switch send log messages to one or more servers, that is, to remote
logging hosts. A remote log server is the same as a remote syslog host.
You must enable the server log on the switch and specify one or more remote syslog
hosts.

Configure the syslog settings

You can globally enable or disable the syslog settings.
To configure the global syslog settings:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network,
or connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser and enter the IP address of the switch in the address field of
your web browser.
