Usage notes Specifying different facilities for log messages generated on different devices can
allow messages from multiple devices sent to a common server to be
distinguished from each other.
Ordinarily, the facility values generated in log messages have meanings as shown
in the following table. Using this command will override these meanings, and the
new meanings will depend on the use you put them to.
