PS you *may* not want to "capture as much information as possible". I would imagine if you syslogged a 'debug all' that neither your syslog source nor destination would be too happy.

Yes - debugging, especially something very chatty, will likely make your device's CPU very unhappy, in addition to generating a large amount of traffic to your syslog host. If you use syslog as a means to get alerts into a network monitoring system for your NOC, debug can make your NMS (and, consequently, your NOC) very unhappy too....

Debugging should be used with great care, and as narrowly scoped (turn on only the debugging you need, only for as long as you need it) as possible.

Hi,

So what exactly is your question? If you just want to enable Syslog logging, why not 
googling for "syslog cisco" first? The first result already tells you how to 
configure it on most Cisco devices:

Hi,

Am trying to capture as much information as possible in regards to syslog.
Am looking to have the logs sent to a syslog server.

regards,
Shake
