Hi Rob,

 

 

I believe you are referring to HSL (High Speed Logging). HSL is a newer feature for shipping logs to a single logging server or a pool of logging servers. It is unformatted by default, but can be formatted for syslog or whatever logging service you might be using. Colin does an excellent job of giving an overview of HSL in this Post of the Week: http://devcentral.f5.com/weblogs/dctv/archive/2010/03/11/post-of-the-week-ndash-high-speed-logging-irules-and.aspx

 

 

While HSL is an excellent addition to the code it will not be completely replacing syslog. As such all the functionality of syslog will remain in place. I hope this answers your question.

 

 

Best regards,
