Description
Use this command to display the port log. This command displays 22 entries at a
time.
The portLogShow command displays the same information as
portLogDump, but it allows you to enter a "return" after each page of output.
Port logs are circular log files in the switch firmware, which can save up to 1024
entries per logical switch in V3.1.x and up to 8000 entries per logical switch in
V4.1.x. Once the log is full, the newest log entries delete the oldest log entries.
Port logs capture switch-to-device, device-to-switch, switch-to-switch, some
device-to-device1 and control information.
If the port log is disabled, the following message appears as the first line. See
portLogClear command for more information.
The following fields are shown:
