Enabled, for memory buffer and NVRAM; all other targets are disabled by default.
This command starts sending messages to the specified target. By default, the memory-buffer, NVRAM, primary MSM/MM, and backup MSM/MM targets are enabled. Other targets must be enabled before messages are sent to those targets.
Configuration changes to the session target are in effect only for the duration of the console display or Telnet session, and are not saved in FLASH. Others are saved in FLASH.
You can also use the following command to enable displaying the log on the console: enable log display
This command is equivalent to the enable log target console-display command.
Note that the backup-msm target is only active on the primary MSM/MM, and the primary-msm target is only active on the backup MSM/MM.
The following example enables log messages on the current session:
enable log target session
This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 10.1.
The primary-msm and backup-msm options were first available in ExtremeXOS 11.0.
The ipPort parameter was first available in ExtremeXOS 11.0.
The UDP port parameter was added in ExtremeXOS 16.2.
This command is available on all platforms.
