IM_UDP(8) BSD System Manager's Manual IM_UDP(8)NAME
UDP input module — syslogd(8) input module for UDP network logging
SYNOPSIS
udp [-a] [-q] [-h host] [-p port]
DESCRIPTION
Listens on an UDP port for incoming log messages for the syslogd(8) dae‐
mon.
EXAMPLES
· The following command starts the syslogd(8) daemon and logs UDP log‐
ging information coming in on the default port only:
syslogd -i udp
· This does the same as above, but listens on address local.example.com
port 1777 instead:
syslogd -i udp '-h local.example.com -p 1777'
· This does the same as above, but gets host name from message:
syslogd -i udp '-a -h local.example.com -p 1777'
· The following is the same, but avoids adding full fomain (FQDN):
syslogd -i 'udp -q -a -h local.example.com -p 1777'
