template¶

Selects the template used to format messages sent through omdtls actions.

This parameter applies to omdtls: Output Module for DTLS Protocol over UDP.

Name:: template
Scope:: module, input
Type:: word
Default:: module=none, input=RSYSLOG_FileFormat
Required?:: no
Introduced:: v8.2402.0

Description¶

Selects the template that formats messages for omdtls actions. If an action does not specify this parameter, it uses RSYSLOG_FileFormat. The module parameter is defined for compatibility but is currently ignored.

The module has always defaulted actions to RSYSLOG_FileFormat (see plugins/omdtls/omdtls.c), even though earlier documentation mentioned RSYSLOG_TraditionalForwardFormat. Update existing configurations only if you require a different template.

Module usage¶

module(load="omdtls" template="ForwardingTemplate")

Input usage¶

action(type="omdtls" target="192.0.2.1" port="4433" template="ForwardingTemplate")
