Here is a more documented configuration file for the LogService functionality in EPiServer CMS.
Adding logging for the EPiServer LogServiceEPiServerLog.config
The log4net has to be set up to send log messages over UDP (in the default configuration).
<appender name="StatisticsUdpAppender" type="EPiServer.Diagnostics.EPiServerUdpAppender, EPiServer">
<remoteAddress value="127.0.0.1" />
<remotePort value="7071" />
</appender>
All log messages generated by the logger “EPiServer.UI.Util.PixelImg” should be send to the Logservice.
<!-- Statistics are sent to this logger, when enabled -->
<logger name="EPiServer.UI.Util.PixelImg">
<!-- Statistics are sent as 'Info' level logs, set the level to "Off" to disable statistics logging -->
<level value="INFO" />
