Cisco Small Business 300 Series Managed Switch Administration Guide 24
Managing System Logs
This chapter describes the System Log feature, which enables the switch to keep
several independent logs. Each log is a set of messages recording system events.
The switch generates the following local logs:
• Log written into a cyclical list of logged events in RAM and is erased when
the switch reboots.
• Log written to a cyclical log-file saved to Flash memory and persists across
reboots.
In addition, you can log messages on remote, log-keeping SYSLOG servers in the
form of SNMP traps and SYSLOG messages.
This chapter contains the following sections:
• Setting System Log Settings
• Setting Remote Logging Settings
• Viewing Memory Logs
Setting System Log Settings
You can enable or disable logging on the Log Settings Page, and select whether
to aggregate log messages.
You can select the events by severity level. Each log message has a severity level
marked with the first letter of the severity level concatenated with a dash (-) on
each side (except for Emergency that is indicated by the letter F). For example, the
log message "%INIT-I-InitCompleted: … " has a severity level of I, meaning
Informational.
