I do not know if you have seen

draft-wildes-netmod-syslog-model-02.txt

or its precursors.  It is a bit thin on description and so hard to tell
just what it is modelling and it does seem to go in a different
direction to your requirements but you never know, it might be subverted
to do what you want!

Subject: [OPSAWG] SYSLOG control MIB? (was Interest in a YANG module
tomanage SYSLOG?)


> My proposal for a Yang module for SYSLOG control (at the end of this

SNMP

two
> tables, a basic SYSLOG control table and a rate-limited event report

> Basic SYSLOG Control Table:
> --------------------------
>
> Key: combination of APP-NAME (general class of logs) and MSGID
(specific
> event type).
>
> Assigned PRI value
>
> Index into rate-limited table, or nil if not rate-limited
>
> Suppressed (TRUE/FALSE)
>
> If an event type is suppressed, the associated events are totally
> ignored by the log system, so the assigned PRI value is not meaningful
> and rate-limit value should be nil.

> Rate Limited Log Control Table:

> Key: table index

> APP-NAME

> Reporting interval value: integer
