Problem logging on a Catalyst 4503

Dec 04, 2006 0 Replies

Hi, I'm trying to configure logging on a syslog server running on a unix box from a Cisco 4503 with IOS 12.2:



catalyst_pi#show version Cisco IOS Software, Catalyst 4000 L3 Switch Software (cat4000-I9S-M), Version 12 .2(25)EWA6, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1) Technical Support:

ROM: 12.2(20r)EW1 Dagobah Revision 225, Swamp Revision 4



catalyst_pi uptime is 1 week, 4 days, 41 minutes System returned to ROM by power-on System image file is "bootflash:cat4000-i9s-mz.122-25.EWA6.bin"



cisco WS-C4503 (MPC8245) processor (revision 4) with 262144K bytes of memory. Processor board ID FOX100803UW MPC8245 CPU at 267Mhz, Supervisor II+TS Last reset from PowerUp



2 Virtual Ethernet interfaces
116 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces
511K bytes of non-volatile configuration memory.

Configuration register is 0x2102



Logging is configured as follows:



logging syslog_server_ip logging trap debugging



#show logging Syslog logging: enabled (0 messages dropped, 1 messages rate-limited, 7 flushes, 0 overruns, xml disabled, filtering disabled) Console logging: level debugging, 125 messages logged, xml disabled, filtering disabled Monitor logging: level debugging, 16 messages logged, xml disabled, filtering disabled Buffer logging: level debugging, 33 messages logged, xml disabled, filtering disabled Exception Logging: size (8192 bytes) Count and timestamp logging messages: disabled Trap logging: level debugging, 505 message lines logged Logging to syslog_server_ip, 7 message lines logged, xml disabled, filtering disabled



Log Buffer (4096 bytes):


1w3d: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by vty0 (ip_terminal)


I tryed many other combinations of settings with the same result:



On syslog server I only see this log lines: Dec 1 10:23:38 catalyst.ip 491: 1w4d: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by vty0 (ip_terminal)



Enabling logging on vty (logging monitor debugging; terminal monitor) I see exactly the same logs.



# show logging



syslog.conf is configured as follows:



+catalyst.ip
*.* /var/log/catalyst.log

in tcpdump I see peckets arriving from the catalyst only when something is actually logged. So nothing else arrives to syslog server. I'm interested in logging at informational level, I configured debug logging for testing purposes..



Where am I wrong?



Thanks.
