Errorlevel Mappings

Top  Previous  Next

Since EventSentry logs syslog messages to the Windows event log, you will need to specify how the syslog error levels correspond to the Windows event log error levels.

 

To prevent a certain error level (e.g. debug) from being written to the Windows event log specify Ignore in the corresponding Windows column. This will drop all packets from the specified error level without logging them to the event log.

 

 

Unix syslog defines eight error levels:

 

EMERG Emergency
ALERT Alert
CRIT Critical
ERR Error
WARNING Warning
NOTICE Notice
INFO Info
DEBUG Debug

 

The Windows event log defines only three severities (SUCCESS is not mentioned since it is basically equal to INFORMATION):

 

ERROR
WARNING
INFORMATION
Ignore (does not log message to the event log)
