log.syslog¶

Enables or disables sending statistics to the regular syslog stream.

This parameter applies to impstats: Generate Periodic Statistics of Internal Counters.

Name:: log.syslog
Scope:: module
Type:: boolean
Default:: module=on
Required?:: no
Introduced:: at least 5.x, possibly earlier

Description¶

This is a boolean setting specifying if data should be sent to the usual syslog stream. This is useful if custom formatting or more elaborate processing is desired. However, output is placed under the same restrictions as regular syslog data, especially in regard to the queue position (stats data may sit for an extended period of time in queues if they are full). If set to off, the ruleset parameter cannot be used, as syslog stream processing is required for rulesets.
