+<h1>RFC5424 structured data parsing module (mmpstrucdata)</h1>
+<p><b>Module Name:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; mmpstrucdata</b></p>
+<p><b>Author: </b>Rainer Gerhards &lt;rgerhards@adiscon.com&gt;</p>
+<p><b>Available since</b>: 7.5.4</p>
+<p><b>Description</b>:</p>
+<p>The mmpstrucdata parses RFC5424 structured data into the message
+json variable tree.
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p><b>Module Configuration Parameters</b>:</p>
+<p>Currently none.
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+<p><b>Action Confguration Parameters</b>:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><b>jsonRoot</b> - default "!"<br>
+Specifies into which json container the data shall be parsed to.
+</ul>

+</ul>
+
+
+<p><b>Caveats/Known Bugs:</b>
+<ul>
+<li>this module is currently experimental; feedback is appreciated
+<li>structured data with duplicate SD-IDs and SD-PARAMS is not
+ properly processed
+</ul>
+
+<p><b>Samples:</b></p>
+<p>In this snippet, we parse the message and emit all json variable to a file
+with the message anonymized. Note that once mmpstrucdata has run, access to the
+original message is no longer possible (execept if stored in user
+variables before anonymization).
