Configuring a Log Filter

Use the following CLI syntax to configure a log filter:

CLI Syntax:

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
                message {eq | neq} pattern pattern [regexp]
                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]

The following displays an example of the log filter configuration command syntax:

Example:

config# log
config>log# filter 1
config>log>filter# description "This is a test filter."
config>log>filter# default-action drop
config>log>filter# entry 1
config>log>filter>entry$ action forward	
config>log>filter>entry# match application eq atm
config>log>filter>entry# match severity eq critical
config>log>filter>entry# exit

The following displays the log filter configuration:

                    severity eq critical
                exit
            exit
        exit

            filter 1
            from main security
