DescriptionCommand
Limits the syslog messages sent to terminal lines
based on severity.
logging monitor [severity]
Limits the syslog messages sent to syslog servers
based on severity.
logging trap [severity]
Limits the syslog messages sent to a syslog archive
based on severity.
severity severity
The logging buffered, logging console, logging monitor, and logging traps commands limit syslog messages
sent to their respective destinations to messages with a level number at or below the specified severity level,
which is specified with the severity argument.
Syslog messages of lower severity level indicate events of higher importance. See Table 32: Syslog
Message Severity Levels, on page 294 for severity level definitions.
Note
Logging History Table
If you have enabled syslog messages traps to be sent to a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
network management station (NMS) with the snmp-server enable traps syslog command, you can change
the level of messages sent and stored in a history table on the router. You can also change the number of
messages that get stored in the history table.
Messages are stored in the history table, because SNMP traps are not guaranteed to reach their destination.
By default, one message of the level warning and above (see Table 32: Syslog Message Severity Levels, on
page 294) is stored in the history table even if syslog traps are not enabled.
This table lists the commands used to change the severity level and table size defaults of the logging history
table
