Syslog message tagging
Hi all,
We have a number of FM transmitters (with Linux controllers) that are network-connected through GSM routers, and I've got them communicating with a remote syslog server. Unfortunately these GSM boxes strip the IP address in the hostname field and replace it with their own IP. Is it possible to place an identifier in the message text field that will make the source readily identifiable? e.g. "rock-mta-tx", which would make it obvious that the message originated from the "Rock transmitter at Maungataniwah".
Can this be done, and if yes, how?
Thanks,
Tony
