The given commands configure the logging host settings in ACOS, A10 Networks' operating system for their networking devices.

Here's a breakdown of the commands and their effects:

  1. ACOS(config)#logging host 192.168.216.45: This command sets the IP address of the first logging host to which logs will be sent. In this case, the IP address is 192.168.216.45.
  2. ACOs(config)#end -: This command exits configuration mode and returns to the ACOS operational mode.
  3. ACOS#active-partition p1 -: This command sets the active partition to p1. This means that any subsequent configuration changes will be made to partition p1.
  4. ACOS[p1](config)#logging host 2.2.2.2: This command sets the IP address of the logging host for partition p1 to 2.2.2.2.
  5. ACOS[p1](config)#logging host partition shared: This command sets the logging host for the shared partition.

Based on these commands, the correct answer is A. System logs generated from partition “p1” will be sent to logging server “2.2.2.2”, and only warning severity log messages are sent to the shared logging server's “192.168.216.45”.

This is because the first command sets the IP address of the logging host to 192.168.216.45 for the entire system. Then, the fourth command sets the IP address of the logging host for partition p1 to 2.2.2.2. This means that logs generated in partition p1 will be sent to 2.2.2.2.

Finally, the last command sets the logging host for the shared partition. Since no IP address is specified, it means that logs for the shared partition will be sent to the same logging host as specified in the first command, which is 192.168.216.45. However, only warning severity logs will be sent to this shared logging host.
