selected syslog messages from this network element.
A valid syslog-id must have the target syslog host address configured.
A maximum of 10 syslog-id’s can be configured.
No log events are sent to a syslog target address until the syslog-id has been configured as the log
destination (to) in the log-id node.
The syslog ID configured in the configure/service/vprn context has a local VPRN scope and only
needs to be unique within the specific VPRN instance. The same ID can be reused under a different
VPRN service or in the global log context under config>log.

entered overwrites the previous address.
