I guess in the beginning of syslog facility was a method for tagging to store messages on the server. The logging trap is what the pix decides the level of alerts to send to the syslog server. I've experimented and go what I needed.</P><P></P><P>thanks again!</P><P>Carlos.</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 03 Jun 2005 17:34:51 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/pix-syslog-facility-and-level/m-p/425569#M557497 hernacar 2005-06-03T17:34:51Z
