<h1>TCP Syslog Input Module</h1>
<p><b>Module Name: imtcp</b></p>
<p><b>Author: </b>Rainer Gerhards
<rgerhards@adiscon.com></p>
<p><b>Description</b>:</p>
<p>Provides the ability to receive syslog messages via TCP.
Encryption can be provided by using <a href="rsyslog_stunnel.html">stunnel</a>
(an alternative is the use
the <a href="imgssapi.html">imgssapi</a>
modul).</p>
<p>In the future, multiple receivers may be configured by
specifying
$InputTCPServerRun multiple times. This is not currently supported.
</p>
<p><b>Configuration Directives</b>:</p>
<ul>
<li>$InputTCPServerRun <port><br>
Starts a TCP server on selected port</li>
<li><ul><li>$InputTCPMaxSessions <number></li></ul>
Sets the maximum number of sessions supported</li><li>$InputTCPServerStreamDriverMode <number><br>
Sets the driver mode for the currently selected <a href="netstream.html">network stream driver</a>. <number> is driver specifc.</li><li>$InputTCPServerStreamDriverAuthMode <mode-string><br>
Sets the authentication mode for the currently selected <a href="netstream.html">network stream driver</a>. <mode-string> is driver specifc.</li><li>$InputTCPServerStreamDriverPermittedPeer <id-string><br>
Sets permitted peer IDs. Only these peers are able to connect to the
listener. <id-string> semantics depend on the currently selected
AuthMode and <a href="netstream.html">network stream driver</a>. PermittedPeers may not be set in anonymous modes.</li>
</ul>
<b>Caveats/Known Bugs:</b>
<ul>
<li>module always binds to all interfaces</li>
<li>only a single listener can be bound</li>
<li>can not be loaded together with <a href="imgssapi.html">imgssapi</a>
(which includes the functionality of imtcp)</li>
</ul>
<p><b>Sample:</b></p>
<p>This sets up a TCP server on port 514:<br>
