Hi Miroslav,
Thank you for your suggestion. I got the property based filtering from
the manpage. The entries in /var/log/messages look like these:
wg0: Sending handshake response to peer 1
wg0: Receiving keepalive packet from peer 1
wg0: Sending keepalive packet to peer 1
wg0: Sending keepalive packet to peer 1
wg0: Sending keepalive packet to peer 1
wg0: Receiving handshake initiation from peer 0
wg0: Sending handshake response to peer 0
wg0: Sending keepalive packet to peer 0
wg0: Sending keepalive packet to peer 1
wg0: Receiving handshake initiation from peer 1
wg0: Sending handshake response to peer 1
wg0: Sending keepalive packet to peer 1
replacing:
*.notice;authpriv.none;kern.debug;lpr.info;mail.crit;news.err
/var/log/messages
in - /etc/syslog.conf - with:
!-wg0
*.notice;authpriv.none;kern.debug;lpr.info;mail.crit;news.err
/var/log/messages
!wg0
*.*
/var/ramdisk_log/wireguard.log
does redirect the logstream perfectly.
Thank you for your suggestion :)

and have since attempted to redirect the "wg0" logs to /var/
ramdisk_log/wireguard.log by using these syslog includes:
:msg, contains, ".*wg0: .*"
*.* /var/ramdisk_log/wireguard.log
and
:msg, regex, "wg[0-9]{1,2}\:\ "
*.* /var/ramdisk_log/wireguard.log
Unfortunately, the includes are not redirecting the wg0 logs to my
preferred location (the includes are placed in /etc/syslog.d/
wireguard.conf which is parsed by syslogd) and I'm out of ideas / logs
on how to further troubleshoot why the logstream doesn't get
redirected :(
I never used property based filters in syslog.conf.
Is it possible for you to use just classic style?
For example I use following to have separate log file for messages from
pkg (install / upgrade / delete):
!-pkg,pkg-static
*.notice;authpriv.none;kern.debug;lpr.info;mail.crit;news.err /var/log/
messages
!pkg,pkg-static
*.* /var/log/pkg.log
But I don't know how your wg0 debug entries are identified in the
messages log.
Kind regards
