Debug and Syslog Messaging Operation
C-40
Syntax: [no] logging facility < facility-name >
The logging facility specifies the destination subsystem the
Syslog server(s) must use. (All configured Syslog servers must
use the same subsystem.) HP recommends the default (user)
subsystem unless your application specifically requires
another subsystem. Options include:
user (the default) — Random user-level messages
kern — Kernel messages
mail — Mail system
daemon — System daemons
auth — Security/Authorization messages
syslog — Messages generated internally by Syslog
lpr — Line-Printer subsystem
news — Netnews subsystem
uucp — uucp subsystem
cron — cron/at subsystem
sys9 — cron/at subsystem
sys10 - sys14 — Reserved for system use
local10 - local17 — Reserved for system use
For a listing of applicable HP ProCurve switches, refer to the
Note on page C-35.
