OSPF loading up my syslog from with odd messages...

RouterOS Forwarding Protocols
1

Hello,

Here is a snippet of a syslog from one rb600A running 4.9. It has alot of OSPF info that non of my other boxs are showing, im not sure what it means. Also, when we bring up a new link adjacent to this box, it always looses its routes, so something must be wrong. First I would like to know if anyone knows what the following might mean:

exclude ‘debug’ topic from logging :slight_smile:

If you need to debug opsf, I recommend you to exclude the raw flag. You can do that like this:

/system logging add topics=opsf,!raw

with the !raw flag, raw packet logging is excluded.
