rsyslog

Professional service and support for rsyslog

In rsyslog, Adiscon GmbH provides an Open Source implementation of the “syslog” protocol for Unix and similar systems. rsyslog is focused on the fast, secure, and reliable distribution of log messages in an IP network.

To ensure stability and a broad range of possible applications, rsyslog expands the original syslogd model with content-based filtering, novel possible applications for filters, and a flexible and user-friendly configuration. One of the biggest differences compared to “syslog” is the switch to the TCP protocol for data transmission with the additional option of using encrypted connections.
