Logging Buffer Defines whether log messages are saved locally to a buffer on the device.
Enable Buffer—When selected, log messages are saved to a buffer on
the device. This is the default. When deselected, a log buffer is not
maintained on the device.
Buffer Size—The size of the buffer in bytes. Valid values range from
4096 to 4294967295 bytes (4 kilobytes to 4 gigabytes). The default size
varies by platform. Make sure not to make the buffer so large that the
router runs out of memory for other tasks; otherwise, deployment might
fail.
Note The maximum buffer size might be smaller on some devices.
Severity Level—The lowest severity level of messages that are saved in
the buffer. All messages of this severity and greater are saved. On most
Cisco IOS routers, the default severity level is 7 (debugging). Severity
levels are identified by a name and a number. For more information, see
Table 15-5 on page 15-145.
Use XML Format—When selected, log messages are saved to a buffer
in XML format. (You can configure both the regular buffer and the XML
buffer in the same policy.) When deselected, an XML buffer is not
maintained on the device.
Buffer Size—The size of the XML buffer in bytes. Valid values range
from 4096 to 4294967295 bytes (4 kilobytes to 4 gigabytes).
Note The maximum buffer size might be smaller on some devices.
Tip To restore the router’s default buffer settings, select Enable Trap,
erase the buffer size setting, then select the blank setting from the
Severity Level list.
