Detailed Description

This handler sends all events registered to the specified hostname and port.

This is typically used to forward events from slave agents to the master agent for logging in the event database and for centralized alert generation.

Wire keywords (standard handler keywords documented in Wire )

• hostname: [hostname|IP]
• port: int udp/tcp/mc port
• protocol: udp,tcp,mc (optional) Defaults to udp
• mcinterface: interface name multicast interface (optional, defaults to ANY, mc protocol only)

Example:

// make the handler, assumes you have bound 'events' to list of events you care about.
create handler eventtx { hostname: sentry.mydomain.net port: 4321 regevent: $events }

Events accepted:
