TCP Syslog Input Module

Module Name: imtcp

Author: Rainer Gerhards +<rgerhards@adiscon.com>

Description:

Provides the ability to receive syslog messages via TCP. +Encryption can be provided by using stunnel +(an alternative is the use +the imgssapi +modul).

In the future, multiple receivers may be configured by +specifying +$InputTCPServerRun multiple times. This is not currently supported. +

Configuration Directives:

$InputTCPServerRun <port>
+Starts a TCP server on selected port
$InputTCPMaxSessions <number>
+Sets the maximum number of sessions supported

+Caveats/Known Bugs: +

module always binds to all interfaces
only a single listener can be bound
can not be loaded together with imgssapi +(which includes the functionality of imtcp)

Sample:
