Hi,

 

Is there support to change the syslog *priority* using rewrite? While I read it was not supported earlier but was planned for syslog-ng 3.2 (apologies if this is a wrong source), can someone help me with an example if it was added in any of the releases later ? Below did not work for me with syslog-ng 3.5.6 to change debug syslog to alert.

 

filter f_syslogd1 { match("%OS-PCE-7-CSPF_FALLBACK") and priority(debug); };

 

rewrite r_rewrite_set{set("1", value("PRIORITY") condition(filter(f_syslogd1)));};   #Neither 1 without quotes

log { source(s_syslog_514); rewrite (r_rewrite_set); destination(d_syslog); };

 

I am able to achieve this using the template hack something like below (changing to local7.alert=185) but the problem is while I can use the template inside destination definition, rewrite can be used under log section so that I can re-use same destination with different filters with or without rewrite, below will get applied to all syslogs to destination d_syslog which is not my requirement. How can I combine filters with template on same destination if rewrite is not supported. Appreciate any suggestions.

template t_asm {

   template("<185> $DATE $HOST $MSGHDR$MSG\n");

   template_escape(no);

};

 

destination d_syslog

         {udp("server-001" port(514) spoof_source(yes) template(t_asm));

};

 

Regards
