Vyos remote syslog

General questions
1

Hello,

I want to start send NAT logs to remote syslog.
Probably vyos will send around 2 Million lines log per day.
How much it will impact Vyos resources?

Thanks

Hello @GooG, I believe it will be better to use in your case modified conntrackd.
Maybe it will be an interesting feature request for VyOS

It’s depends of your hardware.

On Intel E3-1230v6 (disabled HT) with 8GB ram, I have 70 - 80 millions lines per day.

Average load from 0.5 to 2.0, rsyslog uses 1-2% of CPU and 12% of memory.
