c. Log Level
The Log Level is determined by the conditions that are associated with it.
The decision to log a message depends on the Log Area, the RADIUS request
expression (if used), and the Log Level. If the current log level and RADIUS request
expression match the requirements of the log code in the current area, then a message
is generated.
2. Log message disposition
Once a message is generated, it must be sent to a destination or Log Channel, as
described starting on this item. Log Rules determine the Log Channel that is the
destination of the log message.
Important! The asterisk (*) provides limited wildcard matching capabilities for Log
Area and RADIUS Request Expressions. It matches textual data when it is used either
at the beginning or at the end of an expression. For example,
*abc is valid
abc* is valid
*abc* is invalid
ab*c is invalid
Log Rules - Definition and Use

the Log Channel or Channels to which the messages will be sent.
