switch-controller switch-log

switch-controller switch-log

You can use the following command to enable and disable the managed FortiSwitches to export their syslogs to the FortiGate. The setting is global, and the default setting is enabled. To allow a level of filtering, FortiGate sets the user field to fortiswitch-syslog for each entry.

You can override the global log settings for a FortiSwitch, using the following command:

config switch-controller managed-switch

edit <switch-id>

config switch-log

set local-override enable

end

At this point, you can configure the log settings that apply to this specific switch

config switch-controller switch-log
    set status {enable | disable}   Enable/disable adding FortiSwitch logs to FortiGate event log.
    set severity {option}   Severity of FortiSwitch logs that are added to the FortiGate event log.
            emergency     Emergency level.
            alert         Alert level.
            critical      Critical level.
            error         Error level.
            warning       Warning level.
            notification  Notification level.
            information   Information level.
            debug         Debug level.
end
