I need to source syslog from a loopback that is assigned to a VRF. I'm running into an issue;
RTR(config)# logging source-interface loopback0
Interface Loopback0 is not in the global table
The loopback is assigned to the VRF as well as the interface that connects to the management network (via an HWIC-4ESW). Anyone else run into this?
BTW this is a 2801 running 15.0.

Hi Collin,
I was able to find this:
You cannot specify a source address for VRF system logging messages. The VRF Aware System Message Logging feature uses the VRF interface address as the source address for all VRF-aware system logging messages.

Thanks Reza it does help. I guess it makes sense that it will only source that particular VRF logging. Thanks again.

Hi.
"The VRF Aware System Message Logging feature uses the VRF interface address as the source address for all VRF-aware system logging messages."
What IP address in VRF will the router/multi-layer switch use? Lowest IP? Highest IP?
