Summary:In general, techniques are described for dynamically modifying the extent of logging performed by logging information generators in response to events detected in logging information received by the collector. In some examples, a network device includes one or more processors and a collector executed by the processors to receive a log message that includes logging information from a generator. The network device also includes a rules engine to apply one or more rules that each specify a condition and a corresponding action to the logging information to identify a matching rule, wherein the rules engine, upon identifying a matching rule, executes the action of the matching rule to generate and send a logging modification message to increase an extent to which the generator generates logging information.
