Reporting information about changes to the running configuration
Syslog can be used for sending notifications to a remote syslog server about changes made to the running configuration. The notifications in the syslog messages are sent in ASCII format and contain this information:
Notice-Type: Describes the syslog notification as a “running config change”.
Event-ID: Identifier for the running config change event that occurred on the switch.
Config-Method: The source for the running config change.
Device-Name: The managed device.
User-Name: User who made the running config change.
Remote-IP-Address: IP address of a remote host from which the user is connected.
Syntax:
[no] logging notify <running-config-change> [transmission-interval <0-4294967295>
Enables sending the running configuration change notifications to the syslog server.
The
no
form of the command disables sending the running configuration changes to the syslog server.
Default: Disabled
< |

transmission-interval <0-4294967295> |
Specifies the time interval (in seconds) between the transmission of two consecutive notifications. Running config changes occurring within the specified interval will not generate syslog notifications. |
A value of zero means there is no limit; a notification is sent for every running config change.
Default: Zero
