SwOS and logging

Thu Jun 16, 2022 4:34 pm

Hello,

We use a couple of Mikorik switches in our network. We use them only as L2 devices and therefor are running SwOS.

However I have no a situation where I need to know if a interfaces is sometimes going down and up. However I can only see this realtime as there is no log available I believe.

Would it be possible to have a tab in SwOS with "Log"? This will show the log of the devices. Would like to know if interfaces are going down and up. Preferred with also a option to send to a Syslog server.

Just enable SNMP and dump the switch logs. I use Observium which is free and runs on Linux.

Would adding a capability to log remotely via UDP to a syslog daemon be too much to ask in SwOS?
I.e. I'd settle for entering the IP address of the loghost, and possibly requiring it is accessible through an ARP request.

What is the SNMP OID for the log? I can't find that...
