DESCRIPTION

Syslogd2 is a syslog daemon that has been completely re-imagined specifically for use in network environments.
It is multi-threaded, scalable and versatile with features designed for both network and host managers.
Each Syslogd2 binary is customized from a set of over 20 features at compile-time.
It can support input from text files, named-pipes, Linux kernel and user-defined Linux and (both IPv4 and IPv6) IP sockets (both UDP and TCP).
It provides a pre-loadable name-cache that can replace DNS services for host-name resolution.
Syslogd2 easy-to-use filters use string-matching to select messages which can then be modified, dropped, kept or re-routed (changed to new facilities).
Filters are applied to inputs, outputs or both to control msg-routing and network load.
Syslogd2 can spool messages on network failure and forward the spooled traffic on network restoration.
Please see the wiki on this project site for more on the design features, goals and perspectives of Syslogd2 ...



Features

  • Low learning curve. Configuration is based on traditional syslog file formats.
  • Focus is on network- or host-management data collection instead of on host-logging requirements.
  • Works with either systemd or sysv init-scripts.
  • Portable -- currently runs on Linux (re-certifying on Apple OSX).
  • Scales from 2 threads to 100s of threads using multiple thread-pool types & instances.
  • Internal, pre-loadable name-cache removes (or reduces) the load on DNS for host-name resolution.
  • Full, bi-directional support for IPv4 and IPv6 (both TCP and UDP), named-pipes and Linux-sockets (streaming and datagram). Fully Integrated input support for text-files.
  • Spooling based on connection-loss or on network-state (spooled data is flushed when network recovers).
  • Configure as default syslog-daemon or as a generic application.
  • No startup dependence on IP network-state. Re-configures itself as network changes.
  • Automatic rotation of output-files upon reaching user-specified size.
  • Up to 1000 'extra' facilities (default: 32) for use in sorting mixed input into 'streams' based on event or envelope contents.
  • Filters sort events into 'streams' for file-output or discard events to minimize traffic over outbound connections.
  • 4 User-definable interrupts and ~10 interrupt-functions improve run-time management and flexibility.
  • Recognizes and accepts rfc3339 time formats and Syslog-Version-1 format (or approximations thereof).
  • Per-destination user-defined output formats (displayed fields and time-format).
  • Specialized thread-pool types for high-speed UDP input, text-file input, named-pipe input, & kernel input.
  • Configuration display for validation, archiving, trouble-shooting of configuration-files.
  • Command-tool provides interactive status and limited reconfiguration of running process.
