+== Loggers
+Spring Boot Actuator includes the ability to view and configure the log levels of your
+application at runtime.  You can view either the entire list or an individual logger's
+configuration which is made up of both the explictily configured logging level as well as
+the effective logging level given to it by the logging framework.  These levels can be:
+
+* `TRACE`
+* `DEBUG`
+* `INFO`
+* `WARN`
+* `ERROR`
+* `FATAL`
+* `OFF`
+* `null`
+
+with `null` indicating that there is no explict configuration.
