Syslog Facility Properties
When using syslog, specify a facility for the access log messages. As an advanced
property, you can select a number that corresponds to the facility you want to use. The
default value for the
syslog-facility property is 1
for user-level messages. Note:
These values are not standard across different types of UNIX or Linux systems. Consult your particular operating system documentation for properties specific to that system.
