NOTE
The Privileged EXEC level is sometimes called the “Enable” level, because the command for
accessing this level is enable.
The feature is enabled by default.
Examples of Syslog messages for CLI access
When a user whose access is authenticated by a local user account, a RADIUS server, or a
TACACS/TACACS+ server logs into or out of the CLI’s User EXEC or Privileged EXEC mode, the
software generates a Syslog message and trap containing the following information:
• The time stamp
• The user name
• Whether the user logged in or out
• The CLI level the user logged into or out of (User EXEC or Privileged EXEC level)
NOTE
Messages for accessing the User EXEC level apply only to access through Telnet. The device does
not authenticate initial access through serial connections. You are navigated to the Virtual ADX
console while you SSH into the guest OS. Messages for accessing the Privileged EXEC level apply to
access through the Virtual ADX console.
The following examples show login and logout messages for the User EXEC and Privileged EXEC
levels of the CLI.
Syntax: show logging
The first message (the one on the bottom) indicates that user “dg” logged in to the CLI’s User EXEC
level on October 15 at 5:38 PM and 3 seconds (Oct 15 17:38:03). The same user logged into the
Privileged EXEC level four seconds later.
The user remained in the Privileged EXEC mode until 5:59 PM and 22 seconds. (The user could
have used the CONFIG modes as well. Once you access the Privileged EXEC level, no further
authentication is required to access the CONFIG levels.) At 6:01 PM and 11 seconds, the user
ended the CLI session.
Disabling the Syslog messages and traps
Logging of CLI access is enabled by default. If you want to disable the logging, use the following
method.
Virtual ADX(config)# show logging
Syslog logging: enabled (0 messages dropped, 0 flushes, 0 overruns)
