■ Configuration on the log host.
The following configurations were performed on SunOS 4.0 which has similar
configurations with the Unix operating systems implemented by other vendors.
# Execute the following commands as a root user.
# mkdir /var/log/3Com
# touch /var/log/3Com/information
# Edit the file /etc/syslog.conf as a root user and add the following selector/action
pairs.
# 3Com configuration messages
local4.info /var/log/3Com/information
# After the log file information has been created and the configuration file
/etc/syslog.conf has been modified, ensure that the configuration file
/etc/syslog.conf is reread by executing the following commands:
# ps -ae | grep syslogd
147
# kill -HUP 147

■ Configuration on the log host.
#
# mkdir /var/log/3Com
# touch /var/log/3Com/information
# 3Com configuration messages
local4.info /var/log/3Com/information
#
# ps -ae | grep syslogd
147
# kill -HUP 147
Precautions Note the following issues while editing the /etc/syslog.conf file:
■ Comments must be on a separate line and must begin with the # sign.
■ The selector/action pair must be separated with a tab key, rather than a space.
■ No redundant spaces are allowed in the file name.
■ The device name and the accepted severity of log information specified by the
/etc/syslog.conf file must be identical to those configured on the device using
the info-center loghost and info-center source commands; otherwise the
log information may not be output properly to the log host.
