stored on the device and discarded when the device log storage capacity is exceeded.
Use the General settings to select the severity levels of the log entries you want to forward
to a specific location. Juniper Networks assigns a predefined severity level for each event
that generates a log entry on a managed device; using NSM, you can configure a device
to send log entries with specific severity levels to specific destinations.
For each destination (except Firewall Options), you can specify one or more severity
levels; for details on severity levels, see "About Log Severity" on page 715.
Not all destinations support all log entry severities. Table 91 on page 718 details the log
entry severities accepted by each destination (except Firewall Options):
