62.2. ISC DHCP client (dhclient)
The ISC DHCP Client, or dhclient, is commonly used on Linux systems for
requesting DHCP leases. Like DHCPd, dhclient logs its activity the local
Syslog logger (daemon
facility). See Collecting and Parsing Syslog for general
information about collecting Syslog logs.
Example 266. Collecting dhclient messages
This configuration uses the im_file module to read dhclient
messages from one of the Syslog log files, and the xm_syslog
parse_syslog() procedure to parse them. Only
events from the dhclient
source are kept; others are discarded with
drop().
Warning
|
This method will most likely not preserve severity information. See Reading Syslog Log Files for more information and the other sections in Collecting and Parsing Syslog for alternative ways to collect Syslog messages. |
