Parameters

hostname: Specifies a log host by its name, a case-insensitive string of 1 to 253 characters. The host name can contain letters, digits, and special characters including hyphen (-), underscore (_), and dot (.).

ipv4-address: Specifies a log host by its IPv4 address. The address must be a valid unicast address and cannot be a loopback address.

ipv6 ipv6-address: Specifies a log host by its IPv6 address.

port udp-port: Specifies the UDP port number of the log host, in the range of 1 to 65535. As a best practice, use UDP port numbers in the range 1025 to 65535 to avoid collision with well-known UDP port numbers.

Examples

# Export flow log entries to UDP port 2000 on the log host at 1.2.3.6.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] userlog flow export host 1.2.3.6 port 2000

userlog flow export load-balancing

Use userlog flow export load-balancing to enable load balancing for flow log entries.

Use undo userlog flow export load-balancing to restore the default.

Syntax

userlog flow export load-balancing

undo userlog flow export load-balancing

Default

Load balancing is disabled. The device sends a copy of each flow log entry to all available log hosts.

Views

System view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Usage guidelines

In load balancing mode, flow log entries are distributed among log hosts based on the source IP addresses (before NAT) that are recorded in the entries. The flow log entries generated for the same source IP address are sent to the same log host. If a log host goes down, the flow logs sent to it will be lost.

Examples

# Enable load balancing for flow logging.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] userlog flow export load-balancing

userlog flow export source-ip

Use userlog flow export source-ip to specify a source IP address for flow log packets.

Use undo userlog flow export source-ip to restore the default.

Syntax

userlog flow export source-ip { ipv4-address | ipv6 ipv6-address }

undo userlog flow export source-ip [ ipv6 ]

Default

The source IP address of flow log packets is the IP address of their outgoing interface.

Parameters

ipv4-address: Specifies an IPv4 address.

ipv6 ipv6-address: Specifies an IPv6 address.

Examples

# Specify 1.2.1.2 as the source IP address for flow log packets.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] userlog flow export source-ip 1.2.1.2

userlog flow export timestamp localtime

Use userlog flow export timestamp localtime to configure the device to use the local time in the timestamp of flow logs.

Use undo userlog flow export timestamp localtime to restore the default.

Syntax

userlog flow export timestamp localtime

undo userlog flow export timestamp localtime

Default

The device uses the UTC time in the timestamp of flow logs.

Views

System view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Usage guidelines

The device uses either the local time or the UTC time in the timestamp of flow logs.

·     UTC time—Standard Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

·     Local time—Standard GMT plus or minus the time zone offset.

The time zone offset can be configured by using the clock timezone command. For more information, see System Management Command Reference.

Examples

# Configure the device to use the local time in the timestamp of flow logs.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] userlog flow export timestamp localtime

userlog flow export version

Use userlog flow export version to set the flow log version.

Use undo userlog flow export version to restore the default.

Syntax

userlog flow export version version-number

undo userlog flow export version

Default

The flow log version is 1.0.

Views

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

version-number: Specifies a flow log version. Available options are 1, 3, and 5, which represent version 1.0, version 3.0, and version 5.0.

Usage guidelines

If you execute this command multiple times, the most recent configuration takes effect.

Examples

# Set the flow log version to 3.0.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] userlog flow export version 3

Related commands

userlog flow export host

userlog flow syslog

Use userlog flow syslog to specify the information center as the destination for flow log export.

Use undo userlog flow syslog to restore the default.

Syntax

userlog flow syslog

undo userlog flow syslog

Default

Flow log entries are not exported.

Views

System view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Usage guidelines

You can export flow log entries to log hosts or the information center, but not both. If both methods are configured, the system exports flow log entries to the information center.

Flow log entries are converted to the syslog format when they are exported to the information center. Their severity level is informational. With the information center, you can specify multiple log output destinations, including the console, log host, and log file.

Log entries in ASCII format are human readable. However, the log data volume is higher in ASCII format than in binary format.

Examples

# Specify the information center as the destination for flow log export.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] userlog flow syslog

userlog flow export host

userlog host-group

Use userlog host-group to create a flow log host group and enter its view, or enter the view of an existing flow log host group.

Use undo userlog host-group to delete a flow log host group.

Syntax

userlog host-group [ ipv6 ] host-group-name acl { name acl-name | number acl-number }

undo userlog host-group [ ipv6 ] host-group-name

Default

No flow log host groups exist.

Parameters

ipv6: Creates an IPv6 flow log host group. Do not configure this keyword if you want to create an IPv4 flow log host group.

host-group-name: Specify a name for the flow log host group, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 63 characters.

acl: Specify an ACL to match the flow log entries to be sent to the flow log host group.

name acl-name: Specifies the ACL name, a case-insensitive string of 1 to 63 characters. The ACL name must start with a letter and cannot be all.

number acl-number: Specifies the ACL number, in the range of 2000 to 3999.

Usage guidelines

The flow log host group feature enables the device to send specific flow logs to specific group of log hosts. This facilitates log filtering and reduces the log sending and processing workload of the device.

A flow log host group uses an ACL to match the flow logs to be sent to it. Make sure the ACL exists and the ACL rules can identify the designated flow logs.

A flow log matches a log host group if it matches the group's ACL, and it is sent only to the log hosts in the matching group.

If a flow log matches multiple log host groups, the device sends the log to the group that comes first in alphabetical order of the matching group names.

If a flow log does not match any log host groups, the device ignores the log host group configuration and sends the log to all configured log hosts.

Examples

# Create an IPv4 flow log host group named test and specify ACL 2000 for it.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] userlog host-group test acl number 2000

[Sysname-userlog-host-group-test]

Related commands

Parameters

hostname: Specifies a log host by its name, a case-insensitive string of 1 to 253 characters. The host name can contain letters, digits, hyphens (-), underscores (_), and dots (.).

ipv4-address: Specifies a log host by its IPv4 address. The address must be a valid IPv4 unicast address and cannot be a loopback address.

ipv6 ipv6-address: Specifies a log host by its IPv6 address. The address must be a valid IPv6 unicast address and cannot be a loopback address or all zeros.

Usage guidelines

A flow log host group can contain multiple log hosts, and a log host can be assigned to multiple flow log host groups.

Before you assign a log host to a flow log host group, make sure the log host has been configured on the device by using userlog flow export host the command.

Examples

# Assign a log host to flow log host group test.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] userlog host-group test acl number 2000

[Sysname-userlog-host-group-test] userlog host-group host flow 1.2.3.6
