Good I'm new in Splunk.
I have a two questuions
1 Can I sort syslog messages by severity ?
2 If so, can I mark different severity with a different color to make reading of log more effective ?

Thanks

So I have to make skript on perl to sort syslog by severity ???
No way. All I need is syslog. There are many freeware soft that can make sort by severity by default.
Uninstall.
