Description This command adds the string prepended to every syslog message sent to the syslog host.
RFC 3164, The BSD syslog Protocol, allows an alphanumeric string (tag) to be prepended to
the content of every log message sent to the syslog host. This alphanumeric string can, for
example, be used to identify the node that generates the log entry. The software appends a
colon (:) and a space to the string and it is inserted in the syslog message after the date stamp
and before the syslog message content.
Only one string can be entered. If multiple strings are entered, the last string overwrites the
previous string. The alphanumeric string can contain lowercase (a-z), uppercase (A-Z) and
numeric (0-9) characters.
The no form of the command removes the log prefix string.
Default no log-prefix
