Hi Francis,
The logging buffered 10000 command determines the size of the buffer used to
store syslog messages so
that they they can be viewed using the sh logging command. It does not
empty when the buffer is full.
It is just a revolving buffer. The old messages get removed from the buffer
when new ones are added.
This command is pretty much just for convenience so that the logged in user
can view the recent messages
produced by the IOS. The loggin host ipaddress points to the syslog server.
Each time a message is
produced it is sent immediately to that server as well as stored in the
buffer so that it can be viewed
by the sh logging command. You do not need the logging buffered 10000
command in order to get messages
sent to the syslogd server.
...hope this enlightens you
neil
