Hi Steffen,
In previous versions of the bootrom (along with application < 5.1.2), the boot.log would include useful information about DHCP, DNS, and provisioning such as the following:
000007.321|so |3|01|Platform: Model=VVX 500, Assembly=3111-44500-001 Rev=A Region=0 000007.321|so |3|01|Platform: Board=3111-44500-001 7 0 000007.321|so |3|01|Platform: MAC=[redacted] 000007.322|so |3|01|Platform: BootBlock=3.0.3.0013 (44500-001) 07-Oct-11 08:34 000007.322|so |*|01|Platform: BootL1=1.0.0.0018 (44500-001) 06-Oct-11 17:01 000007.322|so |3|01|Application, main: Label=Updater, Version=Hornblende 5.2.1.3271 10-Oct-13 05:41 000007.322|so |3|01|Application, main: P/N=3150-11069-521 000008.188|so |3|01|Link status is Net up Speed 1000 full Duplex, PC down. 000016.567|lldp |3|01|LLDP did not receive a response from a switch.

In the more recent versions of the bootrom, none of the DHCP, DNS, or provisioning details are included, eg:
000007.381|so |3|01|Platform: Model=VVX 500, Assembly=3111-44500-001 Rev=A Region=0 000007.381|so |3|01|Platform: Board=3111-44500-001 7 0 000007.381|so |3|01|Platform: MAC=[redacted] 000007.382|so |3|01|Platform: BootBlock=3.0.3.0013 (44500-001) 07-Oct-11 08:34 000007.383|so |*|01|Platform: BootL1=1.0.0.0018 (44500-001) 06-Oct-11 17:01 000007.383|so |3|01|Application, main: Label=Updater, Version=Citrine 5.3.2.1761 20-Aug-14 14:38 000007.383|so |3|01|Application, main: P/N=3150-11069-532 000007.417|app1 |3|01|Application, load: Type=SIP, Version=5.1.2.1801 20-Aug-14 14:49 000008.261|so |3|01|Link status is Net up Speed 1000 full Duplex, PC down.
Is there a way to increase the logging level of some of the applications/processes that run during the bootrom stage so that we're able to see the local DHCP/DNS parameters that were received by the phone, and the result of it's provisioning attempt(s)?
Thanks.

OK, I worked this out.
It seems that the VVX phones default to syslog level 4 for most modules, and the information I was looking for is a syslog level 3 message.
By adding some settings to the phone's config such as:
log.level.change.boot="3" log.level.change.cdp="3" log.level.change.copy="3" log.level.change.curl="3" log.level.change.dhcpc="3" log.level.change.dot1x="3" log.level.change.lldp="3"
I was then able to see the information I was looking for.

It must be something on your end. The App logs are maybe more suitable for this and you can simply set the DHCPC log level to debug.

Hi,
Thanks for the response. I wasn't sure if this was the result of a config setting/change we'd made to the phone, or the default logging level in newer versions of the bootrom.
We do have some syslog settings in our config files, so it must be one of these doing it:
device.syslog.facility="16" device.syslog.facility.set="1" device.syslog.prependMac="Enabled" device.syslog.prependMac.set="1" device.syslog.renderLevel="0" device.syslog.serverName="prov.versature.com" device.syslog.serverName.set="1" device.syslog.transport="0" device.syslog.transport.set="1" log.level.change.sip="0" log.render.file="0" log.render.stdout="0"
While writing this post I notcied that device.syslog.renderLevel.set="1" is missing, even though it's specified in our config, so our provisioning server must be stripping this for some reason, and as a result the device.syslog.renderLevel="0" setting won't be applying to the phone. I'll open a ticket with our vendor.
I also found your page at http://community.polycom.com/t5/VoIP/FAQ-How-can-change-Logging-Levels-or-use-Syslog/td-p/4741 which will help me to adjust the logging levels as necessary.
Thanks

I was then able to see the information I was looking for.
