Disabling Syslog Messages And Traps For Cli Access - Dell PowerConnect B-RX Configuration Manual

Disabling Syslog messages and traps for CLI access

The device sends Syslog messages and SNMP traps when a user logs into or out of the User EXEC
or Privileged EXEC level of the CLI. The feature, enabled by default, applies to users whose access
is authenticated by an authentication-method list based on a local user account, RADIUS server, or
TACACS and TACACS+ server.
NOTE
The Privileged EXEC level is sometimes called the "Enable" level, because the command for
accessing this level is enable.
Examples of Syslog messages for CLI access
When a user whose access is authenticated by a local user account, a RADIUS server, or a TACACS
and TACACS+ server logs into or out of the CLI's User EXEC or Privileged EXEC mode, the software
generates a Syslog message and trap containing the following information:
•
•
•
•
NOTE
Messages for accessing the User EXEC level apply only to access through Telnet. The device does
not authenticate initial access through serial connections but does authenticate serial access to the
Privileged EXEC level. Messages for accessing the Privileged EXEC level apply to access through the
serial connection or Telnet.
The following examples show login and logout messages for the User EXEC and Privileged EXEC
levels of the CLI.
