public class SyslogAppenderFactory
extends AbstractAppenderFactory<ch.qos.logback.classic.spi.ILoggingEvent>

An AppenderFactory implementation which provides an appender that sends events to a syslog server.

Configuration Parameters:

Name	Default	Description
host	localhost	The hostname of the syslog server.
port	514	The port on which the syslog server is listening.
facility	local0	The syslog facility to use. Can be either auth, authpriv, daemon, cron, ftp, lpr, kern, mail, news, syslog, user, uucp, local0, local1, local2, local3, local4, local5, local6, or local7.
threshold	ALL	The lowest level of events to write to the file.
logFormat	the default format	The Logback pattern with which events will be formatted. See the Logback documentation for details.
includeStackTrace	include stack traces in log messages	Setting includeStackTrace to false causes no Throwable's stack trace data to be sent to the syslog daemon. By default, stack trace data is sent to syslog daemon. See the Logback documentation for details.
