By default, the switch logs normal but significant system messages to a log file and sends these messages
to the system console. You can specify which system messages should be saved based on the type of
facility and the severity level. You can access logged system messages using the CLI or by saving them
to a properly configured system message logging server.
You can configure the Cisco MDS 9020 Switch using the CLI to send notifications to SNMP managers
when particular events occur. You can send these notifications as traps.
