Configuration Guide Configuring Syslog
terminal: Filters out logs sent to the Console and monitor terminal (including Telnet and SSH).
The four filtering directions can be used either in combinations to filter out logs sent in various directions, or separately to
filter out logs sent in a single direction.
Filtering Mode
Two filtering modes are available:
contains-only: Indicates that only logs that contain keywords specified in the filtering rules are output. You may be
interested in only a specified type of logs. In this case, you can apply the contains-only mode on the device to display
only logs that match filtering rules on the terminal, helping you check whether any event occurs.
filter-only: Indicates that logs that contain keywords specified in the filtering rules are filtered out and will not be output.
If a module generates too many logs, spamming may occur on the terminal interface. If you do not care about this type
of logs, you can apply the filter-only mode and configure related filtering rules to filter out logs that may cause
spamming.
The two filtering modes are mutually exclusive, that is, you can configure only one filtering mode at a time.
Filter Rule
Two filtering rules are available:
exact-match: If exact-match is selected, you must select all the three filtering options (module, level, and mnemonic). If
you want to filter out a specified log, use the exact-match filtering rule.
single-match: If exact-match is selected, you only need to select one of the three filtering options (module, level, and
mnemonic). If you want to filter out a specified type of logs, use the single-match filtering rule.
If the same module, level, or mnemonic is configured in both the single-match and exact-match rules, the single-match rule
prevails over the exact-match rule.

Configuring the Log Filtering Direction
By default, the log filtering direction is all, that is, logs sent in all directions are filtered.
Run the logging filter direction { all | buffer | file | server | terminal } command in global configuration mode to configure
the log filtering direction to filter out logs in the specified directions.
Configuring the Log Filtering Mode
By default, the log filtering mode is filter-only.
Run the logging filter type { contains-only | filter-only } command in global configuration mode to configure the log filtering
mode.
Configuring the Log Filtering Rule
By default, no log filtering rule is configured on a device, that is, logs are not filtered out.
