LOGGING COMMANDS
LOG
HOST STARTUP-DELAY
log host startup-delay
Overview Use this command to set the delay between the device booting up and it
attempting to connect to remote log hosts. This is to allow time for network
connectivity to the remote host to be established. During this period, the device
buffers log messages and sends them once it has connected to the remote host.
The startup delay begins when the message "syslog-ng starting up" appears in the
log.
If the default startup delay is not long enough for the boot and configuration
process to complete and the links to come up, you may see logging failure
messages on startup. In these cases, you can use the command to increase the
startup delay.
Use the no variant of this command to return to the default delay values.
Syntax
log host startup-delay [delay <1-600>] [messages <1-5000>]
no log host startup-delay
Default By default the system will buffer up to 2000 messages and wait 120 seconds from
when syslog starts before attempting to filter and transmit the buffered messages
to remote hosts.
Mode Global Configuration
Example To increase the delay to 180 seconds, use the commands:
awplus# configure terminal
awplus(config)# log host startup-delay delay 180
