[no] syslog syslog-id
config>log
Supported on all 7210 SAS platforms as described in this document
Commands in this context configure a syslog target host that is capable of receiving selected syslog messages from this network element.
A valid syslog-id must have the target syslog host address configured. A maximum of 10 syslog IDs can be configured.
No log events are sent to a syslog target address until the syslog-id has been configured as the log destination (to) in the log-id node.
The no form of this command removes the syslog configuration.
Specifies the syslog ID number for the syslog destination, expressed as a decimal integer.
address ip-address
no address
config>log>syslog
Supported on all 7210 SAS platforms as described in this document
This command adds the syslog target host IP address to/from a syslog ID.
This parameter is mandatory. If no address is configured, syslog data cannot be forwarded to the syslog target host.
Only one address can be associated with a syslog-id. If multiple addresses are entered, the last address entered overwrites the previous address.
The same syslog target host can be used by multiple log IDs.
The no form of this command removes the syslog target host IP address.
no address
Specifies the IP address of the syslog target host in dotted decimal notation.
facility syslog-facility
no facility
config>log>syslog
Supported on all 7210 SAS platforms as described in this document
This command configures the facility code for messages sent to the syslog target host.
Multiple syslog IDs can be created with the same target host, but each syslog ID can only have one facility code. If multiple facility codes are entered, the last facility code entered overwrites the previous facility code.
If multiple facilities need to be generated for a single syslog target host, multiple log ID entries must be created, each with its own filter criteria to select the events to be sent to the syslog target host with a specific facility code.
The no form of this command reverts to the default value.
facility local7
Specifies the syslog facility name. The syslog facility name represents a specific numeric facility code. The code should be entered in accordance with the syslog RFC. However, the software does not validate if the facility code configured is appropriate for the event type being sent to the syslog target host.

log-prefix log-prefix-string
no log-prefix
config>log>syslog
Supported on all 7210 SAS platforms as described in this document
This command adds the string prepended to every syslog message sent to the syslog host.
RFC 3164, The BSD syslog Protocol, allows an alphanumeric string (tag) to be prepended to the content of every log message sent to the syslog host. This alphanumeric string can, for example, be used to identify the node that generates the log entry. The software appends a colon (:) and a space to the string and it is inserted in the syslog message after the date stamp and before the syslog message content.
Only one string can be entered. If multiple strings are entered, the last string overwrites the previous string. The alphanumeric string can contain lowercase (a-z), uppercase (A-Z), and numeric (0-9) characters.
The no form of this command removes the log prefix string.
no log-prefix
Specifies an alphanumeric string, up to 32 characters. Spaces and colons cannot be used in the string.
level syslog-level
no level
config>log>syslog
Supported on all 7210 SAS platforms as described in this document
This command configures the syslog message severity level threshold. All messages with a severity level equal to or higher than the threshold are sent to the syslog target host. Severity levels are shown in Table: Syslog message severity levels.
Only a single threshold level can be specified. If multiple levels are entered, the last level entered overwrites the previously entered commands.
The no form of this command reverts to the default value.

Specifies the threshold severity level name.

port port
no port
config>log>syslog
Supported on all 7210 SAS platforms as described in this document
This command configures the UDP port that is used to send syslog messages to the syslog target host.
The port configuration is needed if the syslog target host uses a port other than the standard UDP syslog port 514.
Only one port can be configured. If multiple port commands are entered, the last entered port overwrites the previously entered ports.
The no form of this command removes the value from the configuration.
no port
Specifies the UDP port number to use when sending syslog messages.
throttle-rate events [interval seconds]
no throttle-rate
config>log
Supported on all 7210 SAS platforms as described in this document
This command configures an event throttling rate.
Specifies the number of log events that can be logged within the specified interval for a specific event. When the limit is reached, any additional events of that type are dropped, for example, the event drop count is incremented. At the end of the throttle interval, if any events have been dropped, a trap notification is sent.
Specifies the number of seconds that an event throttling interval lasts.
