There are few current implementations, none native (tunnel mode is used). The main intent of this effort was not performance. So I did not seriously consider performance implications. The main intent is that SSH is becoming increasingly popular among operators for use with network management protocols. For example, NETCONF now seems to focus pretty much on ssh. So the overall idea is that a standardized syslog over ssh capability helps with NM protocol convergence. >From the performance point of view, I do not expect a significant difference to syslog over TLS, at least after the initial session setup is done. Initial setup, I think, will be more expensive for SSH based syslog. I hope this provides at least some clues to an answer ;) Rainer _______________________________________________ Syslog mailing list [email protected] https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/syslog
