Defining Global Log Parameters
The System Logs enable viewing device events in real time, and recording the events for later
usage.
System Logs record and manage events and report errors or informational messages.
Event messages have a unique format, as per the SYSLOG RFC recommended message format for
all error reporting. For example, Syslog and local device reporting messages are assigned a severity
code, and include a message mnemonic, which identifies the source application generating the
message. It allows messages to be filtered based on their urgency or relevancy. Each message
severity determines the set of event logging devices that are sent per each event logging.
The following table contains the Log Severity Levels:
Table 6-21. Log Severity Levels
