[jira] [Commented] (LOG4J2-3094) How to use log4j2 to send syslog
to multiple addresses and ports dynamiclly?
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-3094?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17358004#comment-17358004 ]
Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-3094:
-------------------------------------
Well, you can create an appender to do almost anything you want. You just have to figure out how.
I don't really understand what it means to have dynamic hosts and ports. How would the appender have any idea how to connect to them? While the TcpAppender, which the SocketAppender extends, does not support "dynamic" hosts and ports, it does support providing a host name that is defined by DNS. If that resolves to one or more ip addresses the appender will use them. But it will only use 1 at a time and fail over to the others whenever the connection fails.
