Example of Setting Up a UNIX Syslog Daemon
To set up the syslog daemon on a 4.3 BSD UNIX system, include a line such as the following in the file
/etc/syslog.conf:
local7.debugging /usr/adm/logs/tiplog
The local7 keyword specifies the logging facility to be used.
The debugging keyword specifies the syslog level. See Table 1-8 for other keywords that can be listed.
The UNIX system sends messages at or above this level to the specified file, in this case
/usr/adm/logs/tiplog. The file must already exist, and the syslog daemon must have permission to write
to it.
For the System V UNIX systems, the line should read as follows:
local7.debug /usr/admin/logs/cisco.log
