Anas Nashif 3ae52624ff license: cleanup: add SPDX Apache-2.0 license identifier Update the files which contain no license information with the 'Apache-2.0' SPDX license identifier. Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of Zephyr, which is Apache version 2. Signed-off-by: Anas Nashif <anas.nashif@intel.com>		2019-04-07 08:45:22 -04:00

Syslog net Application
######################

Overview
********

This sample application enables a remote syslog service that will
send syslog messages to a remote server, as configured in ``prj.conf``.
See https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5424 and https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5426
for more details about syslog protocol over UDP.

The source code for this sample application can be found at:
:zephyr_file:`samples/net/syslog_net`.

- :ref:`networking_with_host`

Building and Running
********************

For configuring the remote IPv6 syslog server, set the following
variables in prj.conf file:

.. code-block:: console

	CONFIG_LOG_BACKEND_NET=y
	CONFIG_LOG_BACKEND_NET_SERVER="[2001:db8::2]:514"

Default port number is 514 if user does not specify a value.
The following syntax is supported for the server address
and port:

.. code-block:: console

	192.0.2.1:514
	192.0.2.42
	[2001:db8::1]:514
	[2001:db8::2]
	2001:db::42

Build syslog_net sample application like this:

.. zephyr-app-commands::
   :zephyr-app: samples/net/syslog_net
   :board: <board to use>
   :conf: <config file to use>
