config system_severity
Purpose To configure severity level of an alert required for log entry or trap message.
Syntax
config system_severity [trap | log | all] [critical | warning | information]
Description This command is used to configure the system severity levels on the Switch. When an
event occurs on the Switch, a message will be sent to the SNMP agent (trap), the Switch’s
log or both. Events occurring on the Switch are separated into three main categories,
these categories are NOT precisely the same as the parameters of the same name (see
below).
• Information – Events classified as information are basic events occurring on the
Switch that are not deemed as problematic, such as enabling or disabling various
functions on the Switch.
• Warning - Events classified as warning are problematic events that are not critical to
the overall function of the Switch but do require attention, such as unsuccessful
downloads or uploads and failed logins.
• Critical – Events classified as critical are fatal exceptions occurring on the Switch,
such as hardware failures or spoofing attacks.
Parameters Choose one of the following to identify where severity messages are to be sent.
• trap – Entering this parameter will define which events occurring on the Switch will
be sent to a SNMP agent for analysis.
• log – Entering this parameter will define which events occurring on the Switch will be
sent to the Switch’s log for analysis.
• all – Entering this parameter will define which events occurring on the Switch will be
sent to a SNMP agent and the Switch’s log for analysis.
Choose one of the following to identify what level of severity warnings are to be sent to the
destination entered above.
critical – Entering this parameter along with the proper destination, stated above, will
instruct the Switch to send only critical events to the Switch’s log or SNMP agent.
warning – Entering this parameter along with the proper destination, stated above, will
instruct the Switch to send critical and warning events to the Switch’s log or SNMP
agent.
information – Entering this parameter along with the proper destination, stated above, will
instruct the switch to send informational, warning and critical events to the Switch’s
log or SNMP agent.
Restrictions Only administrator-level users can issue this command.
