I'm forwarding the WiFi router's log messages to our sysadmin box (sb3
). This is the stanza in /etc/rsyslog.conf
:
# WiFi router log
:fromhost-ip, isequal,'10.3.291.2' /var/log/wifi-router.log
& ~
However, the log looks like this:
Dec 23 10:41:58 sb3 dnsmasq-dhcp[253]: DHCPACK(br0) 10.3.292.133 xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx dg-ipad
I want to customize so that anything logged to wifi-router.log
does not mention sb3
but indicates the sender of the log message. How would I do this?
