----------
I wanted to know if it is possible to have rsyslog insert a custom hostname
or ip address into a log or raw log from a remote host that streaming it's
logs to the rsyslog server. 

I have a device X that is forwarding logs to a rsyslog server and then
rsyslog server forwards to a siem tool. The SIEM Tool is removing the
information from the rsyslog server forwarding logs. But the origin log
does not contain an Ip address or hostname. Can I uses a custom template
possible to insert a custom hostname or ip address into the before it is
forwarded to the SIEM - so that the SIEM tool can identify the remote host
better?
