ActionGSSForwardDefaultTemplate

Sets the default output template omgssapi applies when a forwarding action omits an explicit template.

This parameter applies to GSSAPI module support in rsyslog v3.

Name:

ActionGSSForwardDefaultTemplate

Scope:

module

Type:

string

Default:

RSYSLOG_TraditionalForwardFormat

Required?:

no

Introduced:

3.12.4

Description

Sets a new default template for the GSS-API forwarding action. When no template is specified in the forwarding rule, omgssapi falls back to this value. By default the module uses the built-in RSYSLOG_TraditionalForwardFormat template, matching the legacy syslog forward format. Legacy syntax configures this with directives such as $ActionGSSForwardDefaultTemplate RSYSLOG_ForwardFormat.

Module usage

module(
    load="omgssapi"
    actionGssForwardDefaultTemplate="RSYSLOG_ForwardFormat"
)
action(type="omgssapi" target="receiver.mydomain.com")

Legacy names (for reference)

Historic names/directives for compatibility. Do not use in new configs.

  • $ActionGSSForwardDefaultTemplate — maps to ActionGSSForwardDefaultTemplate (status: legacy)
