Event Logs and the Syslog Client

This chapter describes how to view switch activity by displaying and saving
the contents of the event logs. It also explains how to send events to
syslog servers on your network by creating syslog output definitions.
Sections in the chapter include:

“Enabling or Disabling the Event Logs” on page 106

“Displaying the Event Messages” on page 108

“Clearing an Event Log” on page 114

“Modifying an Event Log’s Full Action” on page 115

“Saving an Event Log to a File” on page 116

“Configuring Syslog Output Definitions” on page 117

“Modifying Syslog Output Definitions” on page 120

“Deleting Syslog Output Definitions” on page 121

Note

The event logs, even when disabled, log all of the AT-S63
initialization events that occur when a stack is reset or power cycled.
Any switch events that occur after AT-S63 initialization are entered
into the logs only if the event log feature is enabled, which is the
default setting for this feature.
