messages include Error, Critical, Alert, and Emergency. The default
severity level is Alert(1). The severity can be one of the following levels:
• Emergency (0): The highest level warning level. If the device is down
or not functioning properly, an emergency log is saved to the device.
• Alert (1): The second highest warning level. An alert log is saved if
there is a serious device malfunction, such as all device features
being down.
• Critical (2): The third highest warning level. A critical log is saved if a
critical device malfunction occurs, for example, two device ports are
not functioning, while the rest of the device ports remain functional.
• Error (3): A device error has occurred, such as if a port is offline.
• Warning (4): The lowest level of a device warning.
• Notice (5): Provides the network administrators with device
information.
