Description Sergi Jimenez Romero 2017-02-03 16:14:49 UTC 
> 3. What is the nature and description of the request?  

Current router image template doesn't allow to set logging facility while it does for logging level. 

> 4. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)  

As a sysadmin , when sending logs from haproxy to other logging endpoints sometimes you need to change the facility.

> 5. How would the customer like to achieve this? (List the functional requirements here)  

Modifying the current image template, it should still default to `local1` but allow customisation for logging facility.

> 6. For each functional requirement listed, specify how Red Hat and the customer can test to confirm the requirement is successfully implemented.  

Example scenario: Using router template, build a new router image setting a user-defined logging facility (i.e. local7), through a variable (i.e. ROUTER_LOG_FACILITY).

> 10. List any affected packages or components.

Verified this bug on 3.5.5 with haproxy image:

registry.ops.openshift.com/openshift3/ose-haproxy-router    v3.5.5              fe47b6d4e2fd

1. setup the env and make sure the router is running
2. set log level:
  oc env dc router ROUTER_SYSLOG_ADDRESS=127.0.0.1 ROUTER_LOG_FACILITY=local2
3. check the router
   oc rsh $router_pod cat haproxy.config | grep log
   log 127.0.0.1 local2 warning
