WLC 9800 Syslog message Information

OJ_Magellan — Tue, 09 Nov 2021 09:59:36 GMT

Hi,

I know that there are 3 types of Syslog configiurations to enable logging in AP and WLC for Syslog server

1) Controller Syslog

2) AP Syslog

3) Client State Change Syslog

What information are contained in the Syslog messages (Controller Syslog) which are sent to the Syslog server? is there any Manual beside the configuration manual that provides inforamtion about that? can we filter the Syslog messages and choose what information to send to the Syslog server?

Regards,

- Ref : https://contenthub.cisco.com/chapter.sjs?uri=%2Fsearchable%2Fchapter%2Fcontent%2Fen%2Fus%2Ftd%2Fdocs%2Fwireless%2Fcontroller%2F9800%2F17-3%2Fconfig-guide%2Fb_wl_17_3_cg%2Fm_syslog_server.html.xml&platform=Cisco%20Catalyst%209800%20Series%20Wireless%20Controllers&release=IOS%20XE%20Amsterdam%2017.3.x

Contains instruction for enabling ap-syslog (per profile) and client state-syslogging , I would presume that controller logs are enabled by default when a (global) syslog server is specified.

Look at Information Logs : (most of the time same).

I am aware of this document, it mentions only how to configure the Syslog for AP and WLC, but does not mention what type of logs generated.

The Client state syslogging is quite clear cause they've provided some outputs.

I found the following info:

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/controller/8-0/message/guide/sysmsg80/overview.html

they mention clrealy here the message types, however its for the old WLC, is it similar to WLC 9800 IOS XE 17.X ?
