In the Log Search Results section, different columns display the syslog information:

  • Time Generated (UTC): The generation time of the syslog message.
  • Source IP: The source IP address of the LoadMaster that the syslog came from.
  • Facility: The type of program that is logging the message. Messages with different facilities may be handled differently. RFC 3164 defines the list of facilities available.
  • Severity: The severity of the log file. This is also defined by RFC 3164.
  • Process ID: The ID number of the relevant process.
  • App Name: The name of the related application.
  • Message: The message component has these fields: <tag>, which should be the name of the program or process that generated the message, and <content>, which contains the details of the message.

The figure below displays an example of an exported log file. Note that each field in each line of the log is enclosed within brackets '[ ]' so that the data is clearly delimited.
