Explanation

Syslog defines eight severity levels numbered 0 through 7, where lower numbers indicate more severe conditions. Severity 0 (Emergency) means the system is completely unusable and requires immediate attention-this is the most critical level. Severity 1 is Alert (immediate action needed). Severity 6 is Informational (normal operational messages). Severity 7 is Debug (detailed diagnostic information-the least severe). The full scale is: 0=Emergency, 1=Alert, 2=Critical, 3=Error, 4=Warning, 5=Notice, 6=Informational, 7=Debug. A useful mnemonic is 'Every Angry Coder Errors Whenever Needed Is Debugging.'
