Filters by host or IP

[Kreno]

Hello all,

now that syslo-ng is working I would like to limit/redirect logs based on filters. I have created following filter and inserted it in log statement. Problem is that after I have added  the new code syslog-ng is no longer logging any messages. It does not matter if I input IP or hostname into the filter statement.

 

Code:

filter f_router { host("192.168.1.1") or host("192.168.10.1") or host("Cisco1712") or host("Cisco1812"); };

log { source(s_net);filter (f_router); destination(d_cisco_r);};

Is something wrong with config?

Thank you and kind regards, M

The host() filter only matches what comes across in the host field in the log message.  Try disabling the filter and look at the host field in the logs that are written, and use that to build your filter statement.
