full list of system log syntax?

Hi,

Our switches and routers currently are exporting all system logs to a *nix server. I would like to be able to parse these logs for event types that we deem most important so that we have more control over alerts that are sent. (By event type I mean the part of the log that looks like "%LINK-3-UPDOWN" or "%SNMP-3-AUTHFAIL", et cetera.)

Is there a list or table anywhere that lists all the types of events that are logged, along with the syntax of said logs? At the moment I can't write regular expressions recognizing the less common events because I've never seen them.

Thanks!

Hi there

you need to go to each device's System Messages index

since there are certain messages that are specific to

hardware/software versions.

Example: for IOS 12.4,

There is no list for all possible syslogs available for all devices at this time

Hope that helps.

I found the right index for the version we're running - this is just what I needed. Thanks!
