Troubleshooting
Debug/Syslog Operation
Adding a Description for a Syslog Server
You can associate a user-friendly description with each of the IP addresses
(IPv4 only) configured for syslog using the CLI or SNMP.
Note The HP enterprise MIB hpicfSyslog.mib allows the configuration and moni-
toring of syslog for SNMP (RFC 3164 supported).
To disable Syslog logging on the switch without deleting config-
ured server addresses, enter the no debug destination logging
command. Note that, unlike the case in which no Syslog servers
are configured, if one or more Syslog servers are already
configured and Syslog messaging is disabled, configuring a
new server address does not re-enable Syslog messaging. To re-
enable Syslog messaging, you must enter the debug destination
logging command.
Syntax: [no] logging facility < facility-name >
The logging facility specifies the destination subsystem used
in a configured Syslog server. (All configured Syslog servers
must use the same subsystem.) ProCurve recommends the
default (user) subsystem unless your application specifically
requires another subsystem. Options include:
user (default) — Random user-level messages
kern — Kernel messages
mail — Mail system
daemon — System daemons
auth — Security/Authorization messages
syslog — Messages generated internally by Syslog
lpr — Line-Printer subsystem
news — Netnews subsystem
uucp — uucp subsystem
cron — cron/at subsystem
sys9 — cron/at subsystem
sys10 - sys14 — Reserved for system use
local10 - local17 — Reserved for system use
Use the no form of the command to remove the configured
facility and reconfigure the default (user) value.
For a list of supported ProCurve switches, refer to the Note on
page C-39.
