Hi,

Currently syslogs are configured to forward to 514 port using UDP, just want to know!

Is it possible to forward syslog to RabbitMQ server ?

thanks,

Mohan

You need to customize a plugin for syslog to publish messages to rabbitmq. For this purpose I may suggest taking more attention on Kafka, which is a real-time stream system and supports log replay.

I'd take a look at the Logstash set of plugins and tools. They might make something like this a matter of combining a few building blocks they already provide.

You need something to proxy the syslog data into rabbitmq.

rsyslog has a very good plug-in that does this:

I have used this for a few years already it handles reconnecting nicely.
