Configuring Event Logging
Event log messages in Netvisor ONE covers events related to the system, protocols (STP, TCP, LLDP, LACP, IGMP), and TACACS+, among others. By default, system, port, LLDP, and TACACS+ events are logged. You can add or remove log events by using the log-event-settings-modify command.
log-event-settings-modify |
Modify log event settings. |
Specify one or more of the following options: |
|
system|no-system |
Enable or disable system event logging. Enabled by default |
port|no-port |
Enable or disable port event logging. Enabled by default. |
tcp|no-tcp |
Enable or disable TCP event logging. |
stp|no-stp |
Enable or disable STP event logging. |
igmp|no-igmp |
Enable or disable IGMP event logging. |
lldp|no-lldp |
Enable or disable LLDP event logging. |
lacp|no-lacp |
Enable or disable LACP event logging. |
tacacs|no-tacacs |
Enable or disable TACACS+ event logging.Enabled by default. |
mld|no-mld |
Enable or disable MLD event logging. |
mroute|no-mroute |
Enable or disable mroute event logging. |
vport|no-vport |
Enable or disable vPort event logging. |
lacp-port-event|no-lacp-port-event |
Enable or disable LACP port event logging. |
For instance, to enable logging of STP events, use the following command:
CLI (network-admin@Leaf1) > log-event-settings-modify stp
To display log event settings, use the log-event-settings-show command:
CLI (network-admin@Leaf1) > log-event-settings-show
switch: Leaf1
system: on
port: on
tcp: off
stp: on
igmp: off
lldp: on
lacp: off
tacacs: on
mld: off
mroute: off
vport: off
lacp-port-event: off
