Current Behavior

This method is called when publishing messages.

        private void PublishMessages()
        {
            try
            {
                IList<UaNetworkMessage> networkMessages = m_pubSubConnection.CreateNetworkMessages(m_writerGroupConfiguration, m_writerGroupPublishState);
                if (networkMessages != null)
                {
                    foreach (UaNetworkMessage uaNetworkMessage in networkMessages)
                    {
                        if (uaNetworkMessage != null)
                        {
                            bool success = m_pubSubConnection.PublishNetworkMessage(uaNetworkMessage);
                            Utils.Trace(Utils.TraceMasks.Information,
                                "UaPublisher - PublishNetworkMessage, WriterGroupId:{0}; success = {1}", m_writerGroupConfiguration.WriterGroupId, success.ToString());
                        }
                    }
                }
               
            }
            catch (Exception e)
            {
                // Unexpected exception in PublishMessages
                Utils.Trace(e, "UaPublisher.PublishMessages");
            }
        }

the Utils.Trace call sets Utils.TraceMasks.Information explicitly. This generates a lots of messages (whenever a MQTT message is published) on log file as INFO is a quite high on logging level.

06/14/2024 09:16:07.541 UaPublisher - PublishNetworkMessage, WriterGroupId:5; success = True

Expected Behavior

Downgrade to something equivalent to DEBUG to reduce the amount of logging.

The logging levels being used here seem different from usually fatal/error/warning/info/debug/trace. I am not sure what is the equivalent logging level to normal DEBUG, maybe Operation?.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Compiling UA PubSub https://github.com/OPCFoundation/UA-.NETStandard/tree/master/Applications/ConsoleReferencePublisher
2. Modify logging setting to Information on program.cs

        private static void InitializeLog()
        {
            // Initialize logger
            Utils.SetTraceLog("%CommonApplicationData%\\OPC Foundation\\Logs\\Quickstarts.ConsoleReferencePublisher.log.txt", true);
            Utils.SetTraceMask(Utils.TraceMasks.Information);
            Utils.SetTraceOutput(Utils.TraceOutput.DebugAndFile);
        }

3. run publisher and you will find lots of "UaPublisher - PublishNetworkMessage" messages on log file.
