Max. Table Entries—The maximum number of messages in the syslog table. When this limit has
been reached, the oldest messages are deleted to make room for newer messages.
Max. Syslog Severity—The maximum severity that will be recorded. Messages with a higher
numeric value of severity will not be recorded. This attribute has one of the following values (listed
in ascending order of severity):
emergency (1)
–
alert (2)
–
– critical (3)
– error (4)
– warning (5)
– notice (6)
– info (7)
debug (8)
–
The greatest severity state has the smallest numeric value of severity. For example, the
emergency state has a value of (1) and is more severe than the info state, which has a value of
(7). If you set Max. Syslog Severity to 7, then all states except debug will be recorded. This is
because the debug state has a value of (8), which is greater than the value of the Max. Syslog
Severity attribute.
Enable Notifications—SNMP syslog notifications are sent whenever a new syslog message is
generated and recorded.
– true—Notifications enabled.
– false—Notifications disabled.
