Syslog Servers
Level
1 – alert
2 – critical
3 – error
4 – warning
5 – notification
6 – informational
7 – debugging
The device logs the most recent 100 messages of severity 0, 1, or 2 to the NVRAM log. You cannot configure
logging to the NVRAM.
You can configure which system messages should be logged based on the facility that generated the message
and its severity level.
Syslog Servers
The syslog servers run on remote systems that log system messages based on the syslog protocol. You can
configure up to eight IPv4 or IPv6 syslog servers.
To support the same configuration of syslog servers on all switches in a fabric, you can use Cisco Fabric
Services (CFS) to distribute the syslog server configuration.
When the device first initializes, messages are sent to syslog servers only after the network is initialized.
