Rainer and all: I'd like to propose a slight terminology change for syslog protocol for structured data. I think there is confusion even in this group about current terminology. For example, we (me included) keep referring to "structured data element", when we mean "structured data parameter". It is hard to remember the difference.
I think easier vocabulary can help a standard - inside and outside this group. Here is my proposal: Structured Data => Tags Structured Data Element => Tag Group Structured Data ID => Tag Group ID Structured Data Parameter => Tag Structured Data Parameter Name => Tag Name Structured Data Parameter Value => Tag Value This is much less verbose and easier IMO. Thanks, Anton. _______________________________________________ Syslog mailing list Syslog@lists.ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/syslog
