Table 37 Define the Filtering Rules of the Channels
Operation
Add the filtering record about a
certain type of information in a
module to the information channel
Delete the filtering record about a
certain type of information in a
module or all the modules from the
channel
modu-name specifies the module name. level refers to the severity levels and
severity specifies the severity level of information. The information with the level
below it will not be output. channel-number specifies the channel number and
channel-name specifies the channel name.
Every channel has been set with a default record, whose module name is default
and the module number is 0xffff0000. However, for different channels, the default
record may have different default settings of log, trap and debugging. When there
is no specific configuration record for a module in the channel, use the default
one.
When there is more than one Telnet user or monitor user at the same time, some
configuration parameters should be shared among the users, such as
module-based filtering settings and severity threshold. When a user modifies these
settings, it will be reflected on other clients.
4 Configuration of the info-center loghost
This configuration is performed on the info-center loghost. The following
configuration example is implemented on SunOS 4.0. The configurations on the
