    It depends on what you mean with ``different devices''. If you can
    configure your ``different devices'' to tag their log-messages with
    different log-facilities and/or log-levels (the facilities local0
    .. local7 probably would be good candidates), then you can easily
    configure syslogd to log the different log-facilities to different
    log-files. See the manual-page syslog.conf(5) for how to configure
    syslogd to split the log-messages into different log-files based on
    facility and level.
