I have a netgear modem with log export capability that I would like to

The modem has simple choices that allow me to point the output to a
specific ip address but not a port.
I need to tell syslog or maybe its rsyslog to listen for the log
broadcasts.
So any hints would be helpful.
Run wireshark/tcpdump and see what port it is trying to connect to.
pcap comes in before your machine's local firewall, so don't worry about
disabling that.
# tcpdump -i eth0 host modem-ip-address
HTH,

Thanks
I ran tcpdump and got output that I am now trying to use to
setup in rsyslog.conf.
I'll followup when I have either succeeded or need some
error assistance.
