Display Local Log Priority
The following command displays the local volatile log priority event and utilization statistics:
show logging local
An output similar to the following occurs:
Local: size=10
Volatile:
notifications=12163
priority=1(emergency), 2(alert), 3(critical), 4(error), 5(warning), 6(notice),
8(debug)
Nonvolatile:
notifications=0
priority=none
Syslog Server
A Syslog server acts as a secure, centralized-logging system for capturing system-related events that will be completely
accurate and untampered with at all times.
A Syslog server can be configured to collect event messages generated by the C4/c CMTS.
Standard Protocol
Syslog is a standard protocol for the centralized reporting of system events. Its roots are in the Unix environment, but most
modern devices use the Syslog protocol to report important events, operating parameters and even debug messages.
The C4/c CMTS throttles the events destined for the syslog server prior to sending the event.
Multiple Syslog Servers
The C4/c CMTS has the ability to send logging messages to multiple (up to eight) Syslog servers.
Multiple Syslog servers share the following characteristics:
 All Syslog servers share the same priority table; therefore, if one server is configured to receive priority notifications,
they will all receive the notifications.
