Usage tips
The number of packets sent to each
configured host will be displayed next to its IP
address.
Choose a value that you will remember as
being the Cisco TelePresence Server.
Note 1: Various operating system daemons
and processes utilize Facilities 4, 10, 13 and
14 for security/authorization, audit and alert
messages which seem to be similar.
Note 2: Various operating systems utilize
both Facilities 9 and 15 for clock (cron/at)
messages.
Processes and daemons that have not been
explicitly assigned a Facility value may use
any of the "local use" facilities (16 to 21) or
they may use the "user-level" facility (1) - and
we recommend that you select one of these
values.
