7.8.1.0 - Force10 Networks

To have FTOS include a timestamp with the syslog message, use the following command syntax in the
CONFIGURATION mode:
Command Syntax Command Mode Purpose
service timestamps [log | debug]
[datetime [localtime] [msec]
[show-timezone] | uptime]
To view the configuration, use the show running-config logging command in the EXEC privilege
mode.
To disable time stamping on syslog messages, enter no service timestamps [log | debug].
File Transfer Services
With FTOS, you can configure the system to transfer files over the network using File Transfer Protocol
(FTP). One FTP application is copying the system image files over an interface on to the system; however,
FTP is not supported on VLAN interfaces.
For more information on FTP, refer to RFC 959, File Transfer Protocol.
Configuration Task List for File Transfer Services
The following list includes the configuration tasks for file transfer services:
• Enable FTP server on page 67 (mandatory)
• Configure FTP server parameters on page 67 (optional)
• Configure FTP client parameters on page 68 (optional)
For a complete listing of FTP related commands, refer to .
CONFIGURATION Add timestamp to syslog messages.
Specify the following optional parameters:
• datetime: You can add the keyword
localtime to include the localtime,
msec, and show-timezone. If you
do not add the keyword localtime,
the time is UTC.
• uptime. To view time since last boot.
If neither parameter is specified, FTOS
configures uptime.
