Feature Overview
The Cisco IOS logging facility allows you to save error messages locally or to a remote host. When these error messages exceed the capacity of the local buffer dedicated to storing them, the oldest messages are removed. To provide you with more information about messages that have occurred and may have been removed from the local buffer, an error log counter tabulates the occurrences of each error message, and time-stamps the most recent occurrence.
These messages are further sorted by message facility. Messages from each message facility are grouped together and totaled in the count. If a message is rate-limited, the count is incremented based on the actual messages that have occurred.
The service timestamps command configuration determines the format of the "Last Time" column in the show logging command output. Use the service timestamps command to configure the time-stamp format in the "Last Time" column.
Benefits
•
Provides detailed information regarding system messages, including the most recent time the message occurred.
•
Alerts you to a potential problem with the system if you see the same error message occurring repeatedly.

Determining Platform Support Through Cisco Feature Navigator
Cisco IOS software is packaged in feature sets that support specific platforms. To get updated information regarding platform support for this feature, access Cisco Feature Navigator. Cisco Feature Navigator dynamically updates the list of supported platforms as new platform support is added for the feature.
Cisco Feature Navigator is a web-based tool that enables you to quickly determine which Cisco IOS software images support a specific set of features and which features are supported in a specific Cisco IOS image. You can search by feature or release. Under the release section, you can compare releases side by side to display both the features unique to each software release and the features in common.
To access Cisco Feature Navigator, you must have an account on Cisco.com. If you have forgotten or lost your account information, send a blank e-mail to cco-locksmith@cisco.com. An automatic check will verify that your e-mail address is registered with Cisco.com. If the check is successful, account details with a new random password will be e-mailed to you. Qualified users can establish an account on Cisco.com by following the directions at http://www.cisco.com/register.
Cisco Feature Navigator is updated regularly when major Cisco IOS software releases and technology releases occur. For the most current information, go to the Cisco Feature Navigator home page at the following URL:
