Posted 2022-06-10 wemux

Rsyslog Server安装

[root@rsyslog ~]# yum install rsyslog -y

修改配置/etc/rsyslog.conf

开启udp接收

module(load="imudp") # needs to be done just once
input(type="imudp" port="514")

开启tcp接收

module(load="imtcp") # needs to be done just once
input(type="imtcp" port="514")

定义日志存放路径及名称模版

$template Remote,"/var/log/syslog/%fromhost-ip%/%fromhost-ip%_%$YEAR%-%$MONTH%-%$DAY%.log"

Example

启动rsyslog服务

[root@rsyslog ~]# systemctl enable --now rsyslog

Windows下载并安装nxlog软件

​​https://nxlog.co/system/files/products/files/348/nxlog-ce-2.10.2150.msi​​

安装路径修改nxlog.conf （C:\\Program Files (x86)\\nxlog\\conf）

定义Input模块

<Input Win_LOG>
  Module im_msvistalog
  Query <QueryList>\\
    <Query Id="0">\\
      <Select Path="Application">*</Select>\\
      <Select Path="System">*</Select>\\
      <Select Path="Security">*</Select>\\
    </Query>\\
  </QueryList>
</Input>

<Input TEST_LOG>
Module  im_file
File    "D:\\\\*.log"
SavePos  TRUE
ReadFromLast TRUE
</Input>

定义Output模块

<Output winlog>
    Module      om_udp # using udp
    Host        192.168.137.11 # rsyslog server ip
    Port        514 # rsyslog port
    Exec         to_syslog_bsd();
</Output>

<Output applog>
    Module      om_tcp # using tcp
    Host        192.168.137.11 # rsyslog server ip
    Port        514 # rsyslog server port
    Exec        to_syslog_bsd();
</Output>

定义route模块

<Route 1>
    Path        Win_LOG => winlog
</Route>

<Route 2>
    Path        TEST_LOG => applog
</Route>

重启nxlog服务

写入日志，检查rsyslog接收情况
