IM_UDP(8) FreeBSD System Manager's Manual IM_UDP(8)

UDP input module
syslogd(8) input module for UDP network logging

udp [-a] [-q] [-h host] [-p port]

Listens on an UDP port for incoming log messages for the syslogd(8) daemon.

  • The following command starts the syslogd(8) daemon and logs UDP logging information coming in on the default port only:

    syslogd -i udp
  • This does the same as above, but listens on address local.example.com port 1777 instead:

    syslogd -i udp '-h local.example.com -p 1777'
  • This does the same as above, but gets host name from message:

    syslogd -i udp '-a -h local.example.com -p 1777'
  • The following is the same, but avoids adding full fomain (FQDN):

    syslogd -i 'udp -q -a -h local.example.com -p 1777'

  • Submit bugs at this project's Sourceforge Bug reporting system at: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=add&group_id=25741&atid=385117 You may also report them directly to the authors; send an email to core.devel.alat@corest.com, describing the problem the most you can, containing also machine description, hardware description, the configuration file (/usr/local/etc/syslog.conf), the OS description, and the invoking command line. The more you describe the bug, the faster we can fix it.
