UDP spoofing output module (omudpspoof)

Module Name: omstdout

Author: David Lang <david@lang.hm> and Rainer Gerhards +<rgerhards@adiscon.com>

Available Since: 5.1.3

Description:

This module is similar to the regular UDP forwarder, but permits to +spoof the sender address. +

Configuration Directives:

$ActionUDPSpoofDefaultTemplate <templatename>
+This setting instructs omudpspoof to use a template different from the +default template for all of its actions that do not have a template specified +explicitely. +

+Caveats/Known Bugs: +

IPv6 is currently not supported. If you need this capability, please let us +know via the rsyslog mailing list. +

Sample:

The following sample forwards all syslog messages in unmodified form to the +remote server server.example.com. The sender address 192.0.2.1 is used. +
