Which SYSLOG severity level corresponds to number 6?

Which SYSLOG severity level corresponds to number 6?

• A. Warnings
• B. Informational
• C. Alerts
• D. Critical

Answer: (B)

Syslog severity uses a 0–7 scale where smaller numbers mean more severe conditions. The mapping is 0 Emergency, 1 Alert, 2 Critical, 3 Error, 4 Warning, 5 Notice, 6 Informational, 7 Debug. So a value of 6 corresponds to Informational, which are routine messages about normal operation and not indicating problems. That’s why this is the best match. The other terms map to lower numbers and indicate more urgent or different kinds of events (Alerts and Critical are more severe, Warnings are mid-range, and Debug is the least severe).
