View or Clear the Event Log
You can display the event log, which is used to hold error messages for catastrophic events.
After the event is logged and the updated log is saved in flash memory, the switch is reset.
The log can hold at least 2,000 entries and is erased when an attempt is made to add an
entry after it is full. The event log is preserved across system resets.
 To view the event log or clear the log:

You can use a WiFi or wired network connection, or connect directly to a switch that is
off-network using an Ethernet cable.
