Now that everything is working successfully, I have a question regarding the code I gave into the load balancer...

 

 when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
   if { ! [class match -- [IP::client_addr] equals ip_class] } {
      log local0. "Reject [IP::client_addr]:[TCP::client_port] -> [IP::local_addr]:[TCP::local_port]"
      reject
   }
}
when SERVER_CONNECTED {
   log local0. "Allow [IP::client_addr]:[TCP::client_port] -> [clientside {IP::local_addr}]:[clientside {TCP::local_port}] -> [IP::remote_addr]:[TCP::remote_port]"
}
}

 

In this code, may I know what does this log.local0 signify? I guess it should be a log, in that case, where can I find the log? If my guess is wrong, I would like to know what does mean in the code?

 

 

Thanks and Regards,
