What follows is a detailed explanation of the information fields involved:
I. Int_16 (Priority)
The priority is calculated using the following formula: facility*8+severity-1, in which
facility (the device name) defaults to local7 with the value being 23 (the value of
local6 is 22, that of local5 is 21, and so on).
severity (the information level) ranges from 1 to 8.
meaning associated with each severity.
Note that the priority field appears only when the information has been sent to the log
host.
II. Timestamp
Timestamp records the time when system information is generated to allow users to
check and identify system events.
Note that there is a space between the timestamp and sysname (host name) fields.
The time stamp has the following two formats.
1) Without the universal time coordinated (UTC) time zone, the time stamp is in the
format of "Mmm dd hh:mm:ss:ms yyyy".
2) With the UTC time zone, the time stamp is in the format of "Mmm dd hh:mm:ss:ms
yyyy [GMT +|- hh:mm:ss]".
Each field is described as follows:
"Mmm" represents the month, and the available values are: Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr,
May, Jun, Jul, Aug, Sep, Oct, Nov, and Dec.
"dd" is the date, which shall follow a space if less than 10, for example, " 7".
"hh:mm:ss:ms" is the local time, where "hh" is in the 24-hour format, ranging from
00 to 23, both "mm" and "ss" range from 00 to 59, "ms" ranges from 000 to 999.
(Note that: the time stamp of the system information sent from the information
center to the log host is with a precision of seconds, while that of the system
information sent from the system center to the Console, monitor terminal, logbuffer,
trapbuffer and the SNMP is with a precision of milliseconds.)
"yyyy" is the year.
"[GMT +|- hh:mm:ss]" is the UTC time zone, which represents the time difference
with the Greenwich standard time.
Because switches in a network may distribute in different time zones, when the time
displayed in the time stamps of output information is the local time on each switch, it is
not so convenient for you to locate and solve problems globally. In this case, you can
configure the information center to add UTC time zone to the time stamp of the output
information, so that you can know the standard time when the information center
processing each piece of information. That is, you can know the Greenwich standard
time of each switch in the network based on the UTC record in the time stamp.
