• The event log now includes more information, because of the additional
flexibility built into the log engine. For example, it now logs the IP address and
user name of a remote user login
The log size parameter is now• redefined as the max size of the log that is saved to
flash. More events might appear in the log as they happen, but the whole list will
be trimmed to the specified max size when a save command is issued, or the
system rebooted.
These logs are in compliance with the definitions of RFC 3164, though not all the nuances
of the syslog are implemented as specified by the RFC.
The ‘show log’ command displays the log information and the ‘clear log’ command
clears the log entries.
