Usage Guidelines

The syslog daemon on the syslog server uses a facility to determine where to log the messages from the RUCKUS device. You can specify only one facility. If you configure the device to use two syslog servers, the device uses the same facility on both servers.

The no form of the command restores the default facility.

Examples

The following example changes the log facility. 

device(config)# logging facility local0
