Step 5: Modify the following configuration lines in DUT0 :

set system syslog file CLI filter def app OSDxCLI
set system syslog file CLI filter def level info

Step 6: Login as admin user on DUT0.

Step 7: Modify the following configuration lines in DUT0 :

set system description DESC2

Step 8: Run command file show running://log/user/CLI/CLI at DUT0 and expect this output:
