John, SIEMs and other systems can only work with what they are given, if they get invalid timestamps, they have to be able to figure out what the correct timestamp is, and that is sometimes far harder than it should be if the logs are being forwarded

Subject: Re: [rsyslog] stupid question about timestamp modification

There is not a graceful way to do what you're asking, nor would you want to.  UTC never shifts, other time zones do and if you don't account for this events get displaced on the timeline.  It's best to deliver the events to a system (like a SIEM) that will put events on the timeline correctly regardless of timezone.

Hi,

My cisco asa support only utc timestamp or no timestamp in syslogs.

Is it possible to modify timestamp in rsyslog and then resend to remote
syslogger?

How?

Eero
