Azure SONiC

New in version 0.8.0.

The following will configure Azure Sonic to send syslog messages, over UDP, to the IP Address 10.10.10.1, port 514 and using the syslog-protocol-23 format.

The Rsyslogd is configured via the rsyslog.conf file, found in /etc.

First, configure Rsyslogd to use the SyslogProtocol23Format template

$template RSYSLOG_SyslogProtocol23Format,"<%PRI%>1 %TIMESTAMP:::date-rfc3339% %HOSTNAME% %APP-NAME% %PROCID% %MSGID% %STRUCTURED-DATA%%msg%\n"

Then, set the remote syslog server

*.* @10.10.10.1:514;RSYSLOG_SyslogProtocol23Format

To correctly send the hostname information, it is also recommended to explicitly configure the following:
