Configuring the Syslog service
A
Disabling or re-enabling Syslog
Syslog is enabled by default. To disable it, enter the following command at the global CONFIG level.
BigIron RX(config)# no logging on
Syntax: [no] logging on [<udp-port>]
The <udp-port> parameter specifies the application port used for the Syslog facility. The default is
514.
To re-enable logging, enter the following command.
BigIron RX(config)# logging on
This command enables local Syslog logging with the following defaults:
• Messages of all severity levels (Emergencies – Debugging) are logged.
• Up to 50 messages are retained in the local Syslog buffer.
• No Syslog server is specified.
Specifying a Syslog server
To specify a Syslog server, enter a command such as the following.
BigIron RX(config)# logging host 10.0.0.99
For backward compatibility, the software reads the old command syntax from the startup
configuration, and converts it to the new command syntax in the running configuration.
Syntax: logging host <ip-addr> | <server-name>
Specifying an additional Syslog server
To specify an additional Syslog server, enter the logging host <ip-addr> command again, as in the
following example. You can specify up to six Syslog servers.
Enter a command such as the following.
BigIron RX(config)# logging host 10.0.0.99
BigIron RX(config)# show log
