Hi Rainer,

ok.

I have 3 different entries in my debug log:
---
FROMHOST: '???', fromhost-ip: '???', HOSTNAME: '<IP>', PRI: 14,
syslogtag '00828', programname: '00828', APP-NAME: '00828', PROCID: '-',
MSGID: '-',
TIMESTAMP: 'Feb  4 07:29:40', STRUCTURED-DATA: '-',
msg: ' lldp:  PVID mismatch on port C2(VID 1)with peer device port 2(VID
unknown)(769216)'
escaped msg: ' lldp:  PVID mismatch on port C2(VID 1)with peer device port
2(VID unknown)(769216)'
inputname: imudp rawmsg: '<14> Feb  4 07:29:40 10.224.110.250 00828 lldp:
PVID mismatch on port C2(VID 1)with peer device port 2(VID unknown)(769216)'

FROMHOST: '???', fromhost-ip: '???', HOSTNAME: '???', PRI: 6,
syslogtag 'kernel:', programname: 'kernel', APP-NAME: 'kernel', PROCID:
'-', MSGID: '-',
TIMESTAMP: 'Feb  6 14:11:49', STRUCTURED-DATA: '-',
msg: ' Kernel logging (proc) stopped.'
escaped msg: ' Kernel logging (proc) stopped.'
inputname: imudp rawmsg: '<6>kernel: Kernel logging (proc) stopped.'

FROMHOST: '???', fromhost-ip: '???', HOSTNAME: 'exiting', PRI: 46,
syslogtag 'on', programname: 'on', APP-NAME: 'on', PROCID: '-', MSGID: '-',
TIMESTAMP: 'Feb  6 14:11:50', STRUCTURED-DATA: '-',
msg: ' signal 15'
escaped msg: ' signal 15'
inputname: imudp rawmsg: '<46>exiting on signal 15'
---

I have now setup a rule:
$template
DYNUNKNOWNmessages,"PATH_TO/UNKNOWN/UNKNOWN_%$YEAR%.%$MONTH%_messages"
if $fromhost == '???' and $fromhost-ip == '???' then ?DYNUNKNOWNmessages


I would like to still log the hosts where I know the IP...
Is is possible to say something like the following ?:
---
$template
DYNIPmessages,"PATH_TO/%HOSTNAME%/%HOSTNAME%_%$YEAR%.%$MONTH%_messages"
$template
DYNUNKNOWNmessages,"PATH_TO/UNKNOWN/UNKNOWN_%$YEAR%.%$MONTH%_messages"

if $fromhost == '???' and $fromhost-ip == '???' and $hostname ==
'192.168.*' then ?DYNIPmessages
if $fromhost == '???' and $fromhost-ip == '???' and $hostname !=
'192.168.*' then ?DYNUNKNOWNmessages
---

Thanks in advance :-) !
