Outputting Information to a Terminal or a Remote Server

The specified information can be output to a console, remote terminal, syslog server, or SNMP agent through different channels.

Usage Scenario

The system logs information about device operation in real time. After configuring logs to be output to a terminal or a remote server, you can view logs saved on the log host to assist in understanding the device operation.

Prerequisites

Before outputting information to a terminal or a remote server, ensure that the device is powered on correctly and the self-test is successful.

Outputting Information to a Console: Information can be output to a console for the query of users logging in to the device through a serial interface. This allows users to learn the operating status of the device.

Outputting Information to a Remote Terminal: Information can be output to a console for the query of users logging in to the device through Virtual Type Terminal (VTY) or Telnet. This allows users to learn the operating status of the device.

Sending Information to a Syslog Server: Information can be sent to a Syslog server for user query. This allows users to learn the device operation in real time.

Outputting Information to an SNMP Agent: This section describes how to output information to an SNMP agent. Users can learn the device operation by using an NMS to view information.

Verifying the Configuration of Outputting Information to a Terminal or a Remote Server: After configuring information management, verify the configuration.
