LX Series Configuration Guide
Overview of the Notification Feature
The Notification Feature uses the syslog daemon (syslogd) to
generate event messages. Event Messages can be generated for
events that occur in any of the Linux facilities listed in Table 5.1.
The event messages that are sent to any given destination can
be filtered according to the facility and priority (severity level) of
the message. For example, a destination could be configured to
receive only those messages that originate in a daemon and
have a priority of crit.
Table 5.2 lists the priorities that can be specified as filters for
the Notification Feature.
