Modifying a Log File

If the log destination needs to be changed or if the size of an SNMP log or memory log needs to be modified, the log ID must be removed and then recreated.

Use the following CLI syntax to modify a log file:

CLI Syntax:

config>log 
    log-id log-id
        description description-string
        filter filter-id
        from {[main] [security] [change] [debug-trace]}
        to console
        to file file-id 
        to memory [size] 
        to session
        to snmp [size]
        to syslog syslog-id 

The following displays the current log configuration:

ALU-12>config>log>log-id# info
----------------------------------------------
...
    log-id 2
            description "This is a test log file."
            filter 1
            from main security
            to file 1
    exit
...
----------------------------------------------
ALU-12>config>log>log-id#

The following displays an example of modifying log file parameters:

Example:

config# log
config>log# log-id 2
config>log>log-id# description "Chassis log file."
config>log>log-id# filter 2
config>log>log-id# from security
config>log>log-id# exit

The following displays the modified log file configuration:

ALU-12>config>log# info
----------------------------------------------
...
    log-id 2
            description "Chassis log file."
            filter 2
            from security
            to file 1
    exit
...
----------------------------------------------
ALU-12>config>log#
