Logging CLI Commands and Entry Results
The switch provides command logging via the
command. This feature allows users to
record up to 100 of the most recent commands entered via Telnet, Secure Shell, and console sessions. In
addition to a list of commands entered, the results of each command entry are recorded. Results include
information such as whether a command was executed successfully, or whether a syntax or configuration
error occurred.

error occurred.
Note. The command history feature differs from the command logging feature in that command history
buffers up to 30 of the most recent commands. The command information is not written to a separate log
file. Also, the command history feature includes only general keyword syntax (i.e., it does not record full
syntax, date and time, session IP address, and entry results). For more information on command history,

Enabling Command Logging
By default, command logging is disabled. To enable command logging on the switch, enter the following
command:
command:
-> command-log enable
When command logging is enabled via the command-log enable syntax, a file called command.log is
automatically created in the switch’s flash directory. Once enabled, configuration commands entered on
the command line will be recorded to this file until command logging is disabled.

the command line will be recorded to this file until command logging is disabled.
The command.log file has a 66402 byte capacity. This capacity allows up to 100 of the most recent
commands to be recorded. Because all CLI command logging information is archived to the
command.log file, command history information will be lost if the file is deleted.
