Syslog parsing messages from Ubiquiti devices

Votes:

0

Hello,

I have PRTG sensor for syslog messages on my Probe, and Mikrotik and Ubiquiti devices send their syslog there.

I noticed that there is a problem with parsing syslog messages from Ubiquiti devices. For example: http://i.imgur.com/L0YvplB.png shows that fields Hostname and Tag got discovered wrongly. Could you make parser aware of Ubiquiti syslog message string and parse it properly?

Messages from Mikrotik are not parsed (or recongised by parser) at all, they just show as whole in Message field, and I prefer it that way over the broken way of Ubiquiti messages.

Thanks and best regards, Robert

Dear Robyhr

For analysis, please enable the Syslog logging and send us the according log file from the Ubiquiti device. Please send it as zip compressed file as email attachment to [email protected]. Please also include an description why you sent the file.
