Troubleshooting
Debug/Syslog Operation
Debug Command
At the manager level, use the debug command to perform two main functions:
Specifies the types of event messages to be sent to an external destination.
Specifies the destinations to which selected message types are sent.
By default, no debug destination is enabled and only Event Log messages are
enabled to be sent.
Note To configure a Syslog server, use the logging <syslog-ip-addr> command. For
more information, see “Configuring a Syslog Server” on page C-55.
Debug Messages
Use the debug command to configure the types of debug messages that the
switch can send to configured debug destinations.
Syntax: [no] debug < debug-type >
acl
When a match occurs on an ACL “deny” Access Control
Entry (with log configured), the switch sends an ACL
message to configured debug destinations. For information
on ACLs, refer to the “Access Control Lists (ACLs)” chapter
in the latest version of the following guides:
IPv4 ACLs: Access Security Guide
IPv6 ACLs: IPv6 Configuration Guide
Note: Beginning with software release K.14.01, ACE
matches (hits) for permit and deny entries can be tracked
using the show statistics < aclv4 | aclv6 > command.
(Default: Disabled - ACL messages for traffic that matches
“deny” entries are not sent.)
all
Configures the switch to send all debug message types to
configured debug destination(s). (Default: Disabled - No
debug messages are sent.)
event
Configures the switch to send Event Log messages to config-
ured debug destinations.
Note: This value does not affect the reception of event
notification messages in the Event Log on the switch.
