RE: [logs] Different Logfiles Based on Device Name

Allan,

With most native syslogs you don't have much flexibility. You can try to
set you router to log to the non-default facility  'news', and your firewall
to log to 'kern.notice', for example, and then log on different files based
on those facilities/priorities.

vmm.
