Hi all,
I've been a happy rsyslog user over the years, so thank you developers for
dedicating your time on this project :-)
Over the past months we've been centralizing our infrastructure logging to
a central syslog server running an updated rocky linux 8 and
rsyslog-8.2102.0-13.el8.src.rpm.
We've now started forwarding the output of c1sco routers and switches which
rendered a lot of garbled output.
There is a parser module that accounts for this behavior [0], but it seems
that it's not currently being built in the rpm[1].
Is it a packager's decision?
yes, that is a packager's decision, check for rsyslog-* packages, they may have
made a separate package for it.
I've also noted that the online documentation states that the module is
supported starting on version 8.3.4+ which does not seem to have been
released. Is this a typo?
8.3 is a very old release, we started the 8.x series with normal numbering (8.1,
8.2, etc) but around 8.36 we shifted to the date based versions (8.YY.MM)
if 8.3.4 wasn't released, then it was first in 8.4.0 but the details of that are
a long time ago and not worth digging up :-)
I wrote that module because I had to deal with cisco logs, the code aint pretty
but it works :-)

Thank you for your support.
Best,
Pedro
