Enabling syslog Logging for IPQoS Messages

To record IPQoS boot-time messages, you need to modify the /etc/syslog.conf file as shown in the next procedure.

How to Enable Logging of IPQoS Messages During Booting

1. Open the /etc/syslog.conf file.
2. Add the following text as the final entry in the file.

   user.info /var/adm/messages

   Use tabs rather than spaces between the columns.

   The entry logs all boot-time messages that are generated by IPQoS into the /var/adm/messages file.

3. Reboot the system to apply the messages.
