Structure of the Syslog messages

A CPU collects syslog messages in a local cache. These syslog messages are structured
according to the syslog protocol (RFC 5424) and consist of the following elements:
• HEADER
• STRUCTURED-DATA
• MSG (Message)
The following sections describe the structure and parameters of the individual elements.
