Why each option
The `logging trap 3` command configures the router to send syslog messages with a severity level of 3 (error) or lower (more severe) to the syslog server.
Informational (severity 6) is numerically higher than 3, meaning these less critical messages will not be sent.
Emergency (severity 0) is numerically lower than 3, so these critical messages will be sent.
Warning (severity 4) is numerically higher than 3, meaning these less critical messages will not be sent.
Critical (severity 2) is numerically lower than 3, so these important messages will be sent.
Debug (severity 7) is numerically higher than 3, meaning these least critical messages will not be sent.
Error (severity 3) is the specified trap level, so messages at this level will be sent.
