syslogDefaultFacility
Module: DRAFT-IETF-SYSLOG-MIB
OID (symbolic): DRAFT-IETF-SYSLOG-MIB::syslogDefaultFacility
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.999999.1.3
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: SyslogFacility
Access: read-write
Description: The default syslog facility that will be added to syslog messages when the message needs to be relayed and does not have priority specified.
What is syslogDefaultFacility?
This sets the syslog facility code (e.g. kernel, user, local0-local7) stamped onto outgoing messages that need relaying but arrive without a priority already set. Admins use facility codes to route different message sources (auth, cron, mail, etc.) to separate log files on the receiving syslog server.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.999999.1.3 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> DRAFT-IETF-SYSLOG-MIB::syslogDefaultFacility
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.999999.1.3.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> DRAFT-IETF-SYSLOG-MIB::syslogDefaultFacility.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.999999.1.3.1 s <value>
