Setting To Output System Information To The Trap Buffer - 3Com E4500-24 Cli Configuration Manual

To do...
Enable information
output for a specified
switch in a fabric
Enable system
information output to a
log host
Configure the source
interface through which
log information is sent to
the log host
Configure the output
rules of system
information
Set the format of the time
stamp to be sent to the
log host
After the switches form a fabric, you can use the info-center switch-on command to enable the
information output for the switches to make the log, debugging and trap information of each switch
in the fabric synchronous. Each switch sends its own information to other switches in the fabric and
receives information sent by other switches at the same time to update the information on itself. In
this way, the switch ensures the synchronization of log, debugging and trap information in the
whole fabric.
Be sure to set the correct IP address when using the info-center loghost command. A loopback IP
address will cause an error message prompting that this address is invalid.

Setting to Output System Information to the Trap Buffer

Follow these steps to set to output system information to the trap buffer:
To do...
Enter system view
Enable the information

Use the command...
info-center switch-on { unit

info-center loghost
host-ip-addr [ channel
{ channel-number |
channel-name } | facility

info-center source
{ modu-name | default }
channel { channel-number |
channel-name } [ { log | trap |

Use the command...
system-view
info-center enable

Remarks
Optional
By default, debugging information output
is enabled, and log and trap information
output are disabled for the master switch
in a fabric. Debugging, log and trap
information output are all disabled for
other switches in the fabric.
Required
By default, the switch does not output
information to the log host.
After you configure the switch to output
information to the log host, the switch
uses information channel 2 by default.
Optional
By default, no source interface is
configured, and the system
automatically selects an interface as the
source interface.
Optional
Refer to Table 1-4 for the default output
rules of system information.
Optional
