NXLog cannot assign requested address
DS_534595 created
In my design, there are collectors placed in security zones, receiving logs from a great number of Linux servers and forwarding the incoming to a Master Collector. This works perfectly fine :)
My Collector's Input is defined like:
<Extension _syslog>
Module xm_syslog
</Extension>
<Input in1>
Module im_tcp
Host 0.0.0.0
Port 514
Exec parse_syslog();
</Input>
but with one exception:
In one of the zones I'm supposed to receive logs from the firewall - I can see in the nxlog.log the connection is accepted, but then it says
connection accepted from [X.X.X:X]:port
couldn't bind tcp socket to [X.X.X.X]:514; cannot assign requested address
and I don't get any firewall logs.
What is the proper fix for this?
