Hello,

I'm trying to sort out TCP syslogging from these switches, and not surprisingly I'm running into some problems. And I do know most of the answers to my own questions here. Just a vague hope that someone have had the same problems and also a nice solution (or conclude that there is no easy solution).

I have my tcp listeners running on my central loghost server, and this is all working nicely. And I also have some firewalls logging TCP, and they work nicely.

The problem is that the logs from these Cisco switches doesnt end with ASCII 0a (line feed), so rsyslog just piles the logs up and prints them out in a big blob every now and then (guessing when buffer is full).

Example:

While the switch logs every minute, the logs gets printed to the logfile every 6th minute in these blobs.


Has anyone else perhaps observed this? And have a nice solution?
