632 ExtremeWare Software 7.3.0 Command Reference Guide
Commands for Status Monitoring and Statistics
The built-in filter, DefaultFilter, and a severity level of
info
are used for each new telnet session. These
values may be overridden on a per-session basis using the
configure log target filter
command
and specify the target as
session
. Use the following form of the command for per-session configuration
changes:
configure log target session filter <filter name> {severity <severity> {only}}
Configuration changes to the current session target are in effect only for the duration of the session, and
are not saved in FLASH memory. The
session
option can also be used on the console display, if the
changes are desired to be temporary. If changes to the console-display are to be permanent (saved to
FLASH memory), use the following form of the command:
configure log target console-display filter <filter name> {severity <severity> {only}}
In versions prior to ExtremeWare 7.1.0, so-called
static
messages with a severity level of
warning
and
above were stored in NVRAM so they would be available across a reboot. This remains the default
behavior for ExtremeWare releases, but message filtering for the NVRAM target is now configurable.
Example
The following command sends log messages to the previously syslog host at 10.31.8.25, port 8993, and
facility
local3
, that pass the filter myFilter and are of severity
warning
and above:
configure log target syslog 10.31.8.25:8993 local3 filter myFilter severity warning
The following command sends log messages to the current session, that pass the filter myFilter and are
of severity
warning
and above:
configure log target session filter myFilter severity warning
