Configuring a log filter

Use the following CLI syntax to configure a log filter:

config>log 
        filter filter-id
            default-action {drop|forward}
            description description-string
            entry entry-id
                action {drop|forward}
                description description-string
                match 
                    application {eq|neq} application-id
                    number {eq|neq|lt|lte|gt|gte} event-id
                    router {eq|neq} router-instance [regexp]
                    severity {eq|neq|lt|lte|gt|gte} severity-level
                    subject {eq|neq} subject [regexp]

Example: Log filter configuration

A:ALA-12>config>log# info
#------------------------------------------
echo "Log Configuration "
#------------------------------------------
        file-id 1
            description "This is our log file."
            location cf1:
            rollover 600 retention 24
        exit
        filter 1
            default-action drop
            description "This is a sample filter."
            entry 1
                action forward
                match
                    application eq "mirror"
                    severity eq critical
                exit
            exit
        exit
...
log-id 2
            shutdown
            description "This is a test log file."
            filter 1
            from main security
            to file 1
        exit
...
