Outgoing System Message Logging Server Facilities
All system messages have a logging facility and a level. The logging facility can be thought of as where
and the level can be thought of as what.
The single system message logging daemon (syslogd) sends the information based on the configured
facility option. If no facility is specified, local7 is the default outgoing facility.
The internal facilities are listed in
