logging buffered
The number of entries that the local syslog buffer can store is 4000.
Global configuration mode
The software does not log informational or debugging messages.
To change the message level, you must disable logging of specific message levels individually.
When changing the number of entries that the local syslog buffer can store, pay attention to the following considerations:
- You must save the configuration and reload the software to effect the change.
- The modified number of syslog messages remains persistent across reloads if the
logging persistencecommand is configured. - The number of persistent log messages across soft reboots is the same as the number of dynamic syslog messages.
- If you decrease the size of the buffer, the software clears the buffer before effecting any changes.
- If you increase the size of the syslog buffer, the software clears some of the older locally buffered syslog messages.
The
no form of the command using the
level option disables logging of the specified message level. The
no form of the command using the
num-entries option resets the syslog buffer size to 4000 (the default).
The following example enables the logging of debugging messages.
device(config)# logging buffered debugging
The following example sets the number of entries that the local syslog buffer can store to 1000.
device(config)# logging buffered 1000
The modified number of dynamic syslog messages getting logged is displayed in the
show logging command output.
device# show logging
