Tag in syslog messages

[AllertGen]

Hello everyone.

Is it possible to add tag to syslog messages that is sending to external syslog server by Cisco device?

Best Regards.

You don't mention what kind of Cisco device this question relates to - but in general you can configure the syslog "facility" with a value of local0 through to local7.  This works just like a tag.

An example on a Cisco router would be:

logging facility local3

Hello, Philip.

For IOS and IOS-XE devices. Facility is not good for me, because I have a lot of other devices that using it. This is why I want to use tag as selective option for splitting syslog messages at the central syslog server (grouping by IP addresses is a lot of pain for configuration...).

Best Regards.
