2801 has no informational (6) level log msgs

[bobjunga]

I have enabled trap logging on a Cisco 2801 router (OS 12.3(8)T6) to a linux syslogd. I have done the same recently with a PIX515.

The problem is that I am not getting any informational (6) level msgs even though "logging trap informational" is set. I do get the lower level msgs in the syslog file.

On the PIX with the same setup, I get a bunch of informational (6) msgs that allow me to analyse the traffic going through the device.

Since I have rechecked and tested the syslog config and the 2801 log commands so much, I wonder if maybe the 2801, being a router and not a firewall like the PIX just does not generate any informational (6) level msgs.

As I re-read this post I realize that I did not actually ask a question. So to be clear...

Does the Cisco 2801 produce informational (6) level messages?

If so, any clue about what I have done wrong that the msgs are not being logged?
