So i'm digging deep into syslog and trying to get log4j2's syslog appender to send structured data elements, such as the mdcid, id and enterpriseNumber with logging messages and I have been unable to get it to be sent. Is there some kind of setting that's not obvious from the docs in order to enable this? My xml config is similar to the following
<Configuration status="trace"> <Appenders> <Syslog name="rfc5424" format="RFC5424" host="localhost" port="514" protocol="UDP" mdcId="mcd" enterpriseNumber="18060" includeMDC="true" newLine="true" messageId="Audit" id="u...@domain.com" /> </Appenders> <Loggers> <Root level="info"><AppenderRef ref="rfc5424"/></Root> </Loggers> </Configuration>
