How set logs back to default?

RouterOS General
1

In a moment of weakness I set:

/system logging action add name=file target=disk disk-file-name=log
and
/system logging add action=file

(from the Manual)

and now the logs are full of debug messages.

Is there a way to set logs back to default ?

Thanks.

Prove the results of “/system logging export” then someone can assist to get all back to default

There are two places which configure logging: /system logging action and /system logging. The former is more general and sets destinations of log messages, while the later configure actual logs to be generated (and stored).

By default, there are 4 entries in /system logging:

[user@router] /system logging> print
Flags: X - disabled, I - invalid, * - default 
 #    TOPICS                          ACTION                         PREFIX    
 0  * info                            memory                                   
 1  * error                           memory                                   
 2  * warning                         memory                                   
 3  * critical                        echo

There are probably more if you added some logging actions and you should (prior to removing entries in /system logging action) remove entries with action set to custom actions (see below) by executing commands such as remove after you executed print, with being index number from preceding print command output.


By default, there are 4 entries in /system logging action:

[user@router] /system logging action> print
Flags: * - default 
 0 * name="memory" target=memory memory-lines=1000 memory-stop-on-full=no 

 1 * name="disk" target=disk disk-file-name="flash/log" 
     disk-lines-per-file=1000 disk-file-count=2 disk-stop-on-full=no 

 2 * name="echo" target=echo remember=yes 

 3 * name="remote" target=remote remote=0.0.0.0 remote-port=514 
     src-address=0.0.0.0 bsd-syslog=no syslog-time-format=bsd-syslog 
     syslog-facility=daemon syslog-severity=auto

(disk-file-name in rule #1 could be different depending on device type).

With your additions you’ll see additional actions and those you can remove (by executing e.g. remove after you executed print, with being index number from preceding print command output).

Perfect, Thank you.

I had:

[admin@MikroTik] > /system logging print 
Flags: X - disabled, I - invalid, * - default 
 #    TOPICS                                                                             ACTION                 PREFIX     
 0  * info                                                                               memory                                                                                        
 1  * error                                                                              memory                                                                                        
 2  * warning                                                                            memory                                                                                        
 3  * critical                                                                           echo                                                                                          
 4                                                                                       file

and

/system logging remove 4

Fixed it.

BTW there does not seem to be anything about this at: https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:System/Log
