Display Log Entries

[Michael_M]

In my EOS switches if I SSH into them and a device plugs into the switch...I see a message that says "so and so port is active"...

In EXOS I have to manually type the "show log" command and then scroll all the way back to the top to see the same type of log entry messages.

Is there a command to display or print new log entries on the SSH window when they are written to the log similar to EOS so I can watch what is happening without having to use the "show log" command all the time?

If you are connected to the console you can turn on console logging permanently using this command:

enable log display

To disable this again:

disable log display
 

To get logging on your screen in a telnet or SSH session, you can enable this for your current session.

enable log target session

To disable

disable log target session

Use "show ports". You will see a refreshed state of the ports.
