When my rsyslog server receives packets from our cisco switches, instead
of logging it with the hostname, it logs it with the IP address. How can
I get rsyslog to use the hostname instead?
This is my rsyslog.conf file.
module(load="imuxsock") # provides support for local system logging
module(load="imklog") # provides kernel logging support
$ActionFileDefaultTemplate RSYSLOG_TraditionalFileFormat
$FileOwner root
$FileGroup adm
$FileCreateMode 0640
$DirCreateMode 0755
$Umask 0022
$WorkDirectory /var/spool/rsyslog
template(name="RemoteLogTemplate"
type="string"
string="/var/log/remote/%HOSTNAME%/%$year%/%syslogfacility-text%-%$year%%$month%%$day%.log")
ruleset(name="remote") {
*.* -?RemoteLogTemplate
}
# provides UDP syslog reception
module(load="imudp")
input(type="imudp"
port="514"
ruleset="remote")
auth,authpriv.* /var/log/auth.log
*.*;auth,authpriv.none -/var/log/syslog
daemon.* -/var/log/daemon.log

Thanks.
