Sometimes you want to log remotely and sometimes the amount of local logging taking place is overwhelming your little ERX or ERLite.

==To Log to a Remote Host==
<code>
set system syslog host 172.21.21.148 facility all level info
</code>
This will send all logs to the IP provided at the level just below debug

==To Minimize Local Logging==
You'd do this if you have remote logging enabled already and want to reduce the amount of work your router has to do by keeping a local copy of the logs as well...
<code>
set system syslog global facility protocols level emerg
set system syslog global facility all level emerg
</code>
