It depends on how you want to manage your systems, but my preference is to let
software do the things it’s best at. Kea can send to multiple logging targets,
but you’ll probably get better flexibility to store/mangle/redirect messages if
you use a service designed for that. Syslog-ng (or rsyslog, logstash, etc.)
have a lot more capabilities there.
Also, using the native syslog target kea (as opposed to the file mode) will
likely yield performance increase on heavily loaded system as file handles are
fairly expensive. Systemd’s logging facility is often incorporated at the core
with outputs that are used by userspace apps like syslog-ng

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Kea-users] kea-dhcp remote syslog
Hi all,
I have read in the documentation that multiple loggers can be setup.
But I don't quit understand how to setup remote logging.
thus far we have setup our logging locally using this config:
"loggers": [
{
"name": "kea-dhcp4",
"output_options": [
{
"output": "/var/log/kea/kea-dhcp4.log"
}
],
"severity": "INFO",
"debuglevel": 0
}
So how can we setup additional logging to be forwarded to our syslog server?
(we are using syslog-ng locally)
Should we configure an additional logger to syslog, filter out the message
locally and sent them to the remote logger ?
Any help is appreciated
Regards,
Ronald
