Logging Basics
One of the advantages of vRouter software is its extensive local logging capabilities.
vRouter supports an integrated hard drive, providing capacity for storing local messages without the requirement of an external server.
vRouter software uses the Linux standard syslogd process to store logs
Log messages are stored in the file /var/log/messages.
- When this file reaches 500KB in size, the vRouter renames the file to messages.0 and opens a new messages file.
- This continues up to the file messages.9, for a total of 5 gigabytes of log messages.
the vRouter system maintains separate logs for bootup messages, PPP connection setup, IPsec connection setup, and other features.
To view the entire set of log files in sequential order, use the command show log all.
If you just want to see what happened most recently on your device, you can use the show log tail command.
- This displays the last 10 log entries.
Example Show Log
Feature-Specific Logging
In order to view protocol and feature activity, you first need to enable the vRouter to record the information in the system log.
By default, the vRouter does not capture routine activity, such as routing protocol exchanges or NAT or firewall packets.
For protocol exchanges that only involve the vRouter (DNS, routing updates, etc.), you enable logging from operational mode using the monitor command.
Be as specific as possible with your commands; protocol logging can be processor-intensive.
OSPF Log Example
Monitoring in Real-Time
The monitor command is used to enable protocolspecific logging.
It can also be used to enable real-time viewing of any logging, including end-user transit traffic if logging is enabled on a feature rule.
To use real-time monitoring:
- Enable logging for the appropriate protocol or feature
- Enable monitoring for the protocol or feature
