lower sampling rate of ACL log

[Wan_Whisperer]

Hi,

I have an ACL and one entry is logging so I can gather normal traffic.  Is there a way to slow the log rate?  I can run it for a few days to make use I capture everything.    

As it stands logging that one line makes my router so slow.

what is this device, maybe if that impacting the device why not set up a simple Syslog and offload the logs?

HI,

It's an ASR 1001, I have a syslog server already set up.  Are you saying the only reason its slowing down my ASR is because its printing the output to the console?  

Thanks,

WW

yes that correct, either you configure to buffer, not to console, that lock you up.

if you like to review post the relevant config.

Hi,

Just to be 1000% sure (I have taken down my network 2 times) If I issue the following commands and send everything to my sys log server my CPU will remain low once I add the word "log" to the end one of my ACL statements. 

No logging con

Term no mon
