How to configure /etc/rsyslog.conf so "martian source" messages got to a different log file

I would like to get "martian source" messages out of my messages file and into say /var/log/martian

 

Example:

 

Mar 20 10:23:53 ix kernel: martian source 192.168.2.255 from 192.168.2.242, on dev eth0
Mar 20 10:23:53 ix kernel: ll header: ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:00:16:35:62:45:56:08:00

 

 

Currently running Fedora 12.

 

Thanks...
