Hello Ivan,

Most commonly there may be two main formats of logs that you may encounter.
One is the traditional BSD-style syslog, described in RFC 3164: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3164
The other is the IETF-style log format, described in RFC 5424: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5424

In case of syslog-ng you would have to either use
network(transport(tcp|udp))
or
syslog() or network(transport(tcp|udp) flags(syslog-protocol))
respectively.

The sample logs you included seem to resemble the IETF-style.
What type of source do you have configured in your syslog-ng setup? (Could you please share your config file?)

Best Regards,
János

Hi all!



I think I have a stupid question, but I really dont know how this make.

Situation: 
When I send syslog message with timestamp in  format "1Mar 25 2021 16:35:49" everything works great, but when  I send  message with timestamp in format "1Mar 25 2021 16:35:49+03:00", syslog-ng adding two extra fields with timestamp and IP address and due that break down  file naming.

Question:
How can I say to syslog-ng server do not  add extra fields when he  get message with +03:00  in timestamp?

message without +03:00
Mar 25 13:11:57 HUAWEI-CORE-OFFICE-1   <bla bla bal>

mesage with  +03:00 
Mar 25 13:46:45 192.168.100.34 Mar 25 2021 16:46:45+03:00 HUAWEI-CORE-OFFICE-1  <bla bla bla>



I will be appreciate for any advice!



P.s sorry for bad english it is not my native language
