The idea of syslog is to summarize all the logs of all network devices and servers on one server, and you always have to consult this syslog server to see the logs.
BSD -> older syslog format
IETF -> newer syslog format
UDP -> 514
A typical syslog message:
%SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by console
SYS -> system message
5 -> severity message 5 (notice) (0 is emergency until level 7 is debug)
