Settings

Setting	Required	Description
host	True	The hostname/IP of the Syslog receiver
port	False	The port of the Syslog receiver (default 514)
origin	False	The IP address to use in ULDP as message origin (defaults to host IP)
deviceDomain	False	The LMI device domain to use
appName	False	The app name to put in the Syslog header
msgId	False	The message ID to put in the Syslog header
flowInfo	False	If set to true this will append the flow information to the log message
flattenJson	False	If true, assumes the message is a JSON payload and flattens it to CSV
message	True	The body of the message to send

Remarks

There is no support for secure ULDP (TLS) for now To work, the ULDP for GO library has to be added as a contribution (available as ZIP package in LMI supplemental disk)
