syslog local facilities

[Huy M Le]

syslog local log facilities are reserved for local usage, based on the
linux man pages.  My understanding is that these local log facilities can
not be utilized by any remote machines.  Am I currectly understanding?
Would someone please clearify this?  Also, there are 8 local log levels
running from local0 to local7; i found one discussion one the web stated
that local7 is for kernel messages.  What each of other local log
facilities are for? I greatly appreciate any helps.
