<div dir="ltr">Hi,<div><br></div><div> We use syslog-ng in a very diverse environment of vlans. The majority of the config is driven from python against an ipam. (Maybe API to drive config from Ipam's too?) </div><div><br></div><div>So for any given subnet we will have a filter, destination and log rule. we have over 700 vlans which makes for a large but simple set of conf files. </div><div><br></div><div>I would like to see options that syslog-ng-ctl has plus the ability to see filter, log, and destination data in real-time. Even a counter would be helpful. </div><div><br></div><div>Ideally this would be a socket connection to the running syslog-ng daemon similar to what NcFTP has ncftpd_spy and ncftpd_watch. </div><div><br></div><div>more to come. </div><div><br></div><div>Thanks </div><div>Scot </div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, May 20, 2016 at 8:10 AM, Noémi Ványi <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:sitbackandwait@gmail.com" target="_blank">sitbackandwait@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>Hello!<br><br></div><div>A new feature is going to be developed, as a part of GSOC, so syslog-ng can be started as a command line tool.<br><br></div><div>What could the CLI do for you?<br><ul><li>pipelines of complex filtering, rewriting could be tested more easily, thus configuration could become simpler than before<br></li><li>existing logs could be transformed<br></li></ul></div><div>The format of the new command line options is not decided yet.
