Description This command is used to specify that a particular event, or all events associated with an application,
are either generated or suppressed.
Events are generated by an application and contain an event number and description explaining the
cause of the event. Each event has a default designation that directs it to be generated or suppressed.
Events are generated with a default severity level that can be modified by using the severity-level
option.
Events that are suppressed by default are typically used for debugging purposes. Events are
suppressed at the time the application requests the event’s generation. No event log entry is generated
regardless of the destination. While this feature can save processor resources, there may be a negative
effect on the ability to troubleshoot problems if the logging entries are not generated. In reverse, the
generation of too many events may cause excessive overhead.
The rate is set with the
throttle-rate command. The throttle parameter enables event throttling for
these events.
The no form of the command reverts the parameters to the default setting for events for the
application or a specific event within the application. The severity, generate, and suppress options
will also be reset to the initial values.
Default Each event has a default suppress or generate state. To display a list of all events and the current
configuration use the event control command.
Parameters application-id — the application whose events are affected by this event control filter
Default None, this parameter must be explicitly specified.
Values A valid application name. To display a list of valid application names, use the
applications command. Valid applications are:
atm, chassis, debug, efm_oam, filter, gsmp, ip, ldp, logger, mpls, ntp, oam, port,
ppp, qos, route_policy, security, snmp, stp, svcmgr, system, tip, tod, user, user_db,
