Hello all,

I'm trying to log certain BGP messages in the syslog like keepalive messages and state transitions.  Below is a snippet of the code.  When I run a 'show log daemon' it is blank.  Is there something else that needs to be done?

syslog {
    archive size 100k files 3;
    user * {
        any emergency;
    }
    file messages {
        any critical;
        authorization info;
    }
    file interactive-commands {
        interactive-commands error;
    }
    file daemon {
        daemon info;
    }
}

bgp {
    log-updown;
    group external-peers {
        type external;
        local-address x.x.x.x;
        export bgp-transit-export;
        peer-as xxxx;
        local-as xxxx;
        neighbor x.x.x.x;
    }
}

Hi,

If you want events such as keepalive then you will need to enable traceoptions.

Simply define the flags that you are interested in and then the destination file and you are done.
