cisco syslog parameters

[sundayviet]

I am reading about cisco syslog, i don't really understand some parameters

- monitor logging

- console logging

- trap logging

Anyone can tell me what different of them are ? Thank so much!

Hey

Trap logging is for when you have some type of software like Prime and Cisco devices sends out traps to the snmp-server and it builds stats graphs etc against it and can also notify of issue depending on your software

Console logging is for troubleshooting when your directly connected to the device , all logs appear as they happen instead of going to the buffer

Monitor logging is the same really as console but its when you want to see the logs appear as they happen while your remotely connected in over the vty port rather than direct to console

Thank Mark,

Summary :

- Trap logging is the log which will be send to syslog server.

- Console logging is log appear when we have console connection to device.

- Monitor logg is log appear when we have remote connection (telnet, SSH)

is that right?
