<div>
<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
In our Kiwi syslog server that we use to accept logs/events from a<br />
certain Linux custom appliance, we only see &nbsp;&quot;Local4: ...&quot; &nbsp;but we<br />
can't see IP addresses of users who use that appliance<br />
(it's called Garrison: &nbsp;<a href="https://www.garrison.com/?lang=en" rel="ugc">https://www.garrison.com/?lang=en</a> )<br />
<br />
The support for that product told us it's something we have to<br />
configure in Kiwi syslog server.<br />
<br />
Had been browsing all over Kiwi &amp;&nbsp;there's nothing in Kiwi that we <br />
configure.<br />
<br />
Correct me if I'm mistaken:<br />
Q1:<br />
is this something to be configured at syslog client end &amp;&nbsp;not <br />
syslog server? &nbsp;My understanding is the level of logging is<br />
configured at syslog client (in Linux/Unix, there's syslog.conf)<br />
<br />
Q2:<br />
Kiwi just receives everything that's sent to it via Udp514 &amp;<br />
doesn't filter off anything, right?

Does Kiwi syslog server filter off certain logs or it can be configured as such?
