@@ -117,6 +117,7 @@ Hostname | `string` | The default hostname exposed to application
 ForkMode | `string` | Specify the mode used for the experimental pseudo fork feature. Refer to [doc/design/fork.md](/doc/design/fork.md) for more details. The default value is `"none"`, which disables the feature.
 Mount | `object` | Set if parameters for informing Mystikos to automatically mount a set of directories or ext2 disk images from the host into the TEE. Refer to [doc/design/mount-config-design.md](/doc/design/mount-config-design.md) for more details. By default no extra mounts are added to the root filesystem.
 UnhandledSyscallEnosys | `boolean \| int` | This option would prevent the termination of a program using myst_panic when the application invokes a syscall that is not handled by the Mystikos kernel. The default value is `false`, which implies that we terminate on unhandled syscalls by default. If `true`, it will cause the syscall to return an ENOSYS error.
+SyslogLevel | `string` | System logger's output level. Should be one of: emerg, alert, crit, err, warn, notice, info or debug.
