0x00000002 mail

0x00000003 daemon

0x00000004 auth

0x00000005 syslog

0x00000006 lpr

0x00000007 news

This information will be shipped out of the box starting in the DX NetOps Spectrum 25.4.5 release.

 

NOTE: The current workaround is too add these values to the <SPECROOT>/SG-Support/CsEvFormat/EventTables/syslogFacility_en_US file and then restart the SpectroSERVER for the changes to take effect.
