Explanation
Cisco IOS supports several destinations for syslog messages: (B) The logging buffer in RAM - Cisco routers maintain an internal RAM-based circular buffer (configured with 'logging buffered') that stores recent log messages viewable with 'show logging'. (C) The console terminal - by default, syslog messages are sent to the console port, visible when connected via console cable. (E) A Syslog server - an external host running syslog daemon software (e.g., on UDP 514) collects and stores messages long-term, which is the most scalable and persistent option. Flash (A) is not a standard syslog destination in IOS. While other VTY terminals (D) can receive messages via 'terminal monitor', the three most commonly cited and tested destinations are B, C, and E.
