Hello guys,
Thanks for the replies!
Unfortunately I cannot deploy your file edit suggestions. The syslog daemon is set to send the logging directly to ArcSight besides writing it to file. Manipulating the written syslogs is therefore not a valid solution besides the fact this would break security policy because editing a system file before submission will not be accepted, even via (cron)script. They don't really trust us root admins ;-)
I essentially thus really need to be able to change the output of the syslog daemon.
I will check what log level I have set and if your suggested change is something I can test. I will also revert to the OS supplier for checking version and update possibility.
But. Does anyone know about the ssh authentication order and the way that influences the logged message? I found some suggestions online that changing the order would change logged messages?
Best regards,
Sjleegketting.

networkd(8) BSD System Manager's Manual networkd(8)
NAME
networkd -- network daemon.
SYNOPSIS
networkd
DESCRIPTION
networkd is a launch-on-demand daemon that performs opreations on behalf of code in libystem_network, a component of libSystem.
networkd has no user-specifiable command-line argument, and users should not run networkd manually.
LOGGING
There are several methods with which to examine networkd's internal state for debugging and diagnostic purposes. The syslog(1) logging levels
map as follows:
Error - Error messages
Warning - Non-fatal concerns
Notice - Internal state messages
Info - Informational messages
By default, only log level Notice through Error is logged.
Syslog may be used to modify the mask which logging levels are logged. For example, to enable log levels Emergency - Debug :
% sudo syslog -c networkd -d
The networkd settings file may also be used to change the log level. This method will add some additional logging that may be missing using
the syslog technique listed above. This method is also persistent across runs of networkd For example, to enable log levels Emergency (1)
through Debug (7):
% sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.networkd networkd_log_level -int 7
The networkd settings file may also be used to change the log level for code in libsystem_network. For example, to enable log levels Emer-
gency (1) through Debug (7) for libsystem_network code:
% sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.networkd libnetcore_log_level -int 7
A SIGINFO signal will dump a snapshot summary of the internal state to the system log at log level NOTICE :
% sudo killall -INFO networkd
FILES
/usr/libexec/networkd
The binary.
/System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.networkd.plist
The launchd.plist(5) controlling the networkd job.
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.networkd.plist
An optional preferences file read by networkd.
BUGS
networkd bugs are tracked in Apple Radar component "networkd".
HISTORY
networkd first appeared in Mac OS X 10.7.
