Change source name of F5 for log

Hello everyone,

 

We are using graylog server for, well, our log^^ and the main problem we got is that we cant make the difference between the F5 we got because all the log got the same source name : "F5" as you can see in the screenshot. Is there a way to change it?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Regards,

    Hello,

     

    What is your configuration ?

     

    I also use graylog sometimes and never get this issue

      False alert, I figured out the problem: The name of my F5 is F5.name.domain.local and in the log only appears F5 and not the rest of the name
