is there a simple way to filter a specific device from the system logs? My partners Apple Watch makes a DHCP request basically every minute (seems like a common issue with Apple devices), even with an assigned IP and infinite lease time.
I don't think this is an issue performance wise but, it does clutter the logs. I was hoping there might be a way to just filter the requests from this device.
There is a way for rsyslog or syslog-ng but not with busybox logd
Ah I see. I was referring to busybox. I don't have any experience with rsyslog or syslog-ng. Would you recommend one for a new user? I typically look at the system log via luci as I find it more convenient, not sure if one package or the other is more suitable for someone who uses luci more often.
EDIT: ended up using rsyslog via this post and was able to get the log filtered the way I like.
