A central log server

LogMaster4Net

LogMaster4Net is a central log server which can receive log messages of your other applications and organize them as your demand. It can help you to manage your all applications log messages in a central place. So if you have lots of different applications running and most of them have their own logging, this project will be pretty useful for you.

LogMaster4Net actually is a UDP server which is base on SuperSocket

1. Server Configuration

    <server name="LogMasterServer"
            serverType="LogMaster4Net.MasterServer.LogMasterServer, LogMaster4Net.MasterServer"
            ip="Any" port="2020" mode="Udp"
            maxConnectionNumber="100"
    		clearIdleSession="true"
    		idleSessionTimeOut="3600"
    		clearIdleSessionInterval="600"
    		maxRequestLength="40960"
            receiveBufferSize="40960">
    </server>
   

2. Server Logging Configuration

    \Config\log4net.config: the logging confuguration of the server self;
    \Config\log4net.[LogAppName].Config : the logging configuration for your application whose name is [LogAppName]};
   

3. Application Setting

   • Set LogAppName

       log4net.GlobalContext.Properties["LogAppName"] = "MyTool1";
     

   • Logging Configuration

       <appender name="udpAppender" type="log4net.Appender.UdpAppender">
         <remoteAddress value="[ServerAddress]" />
         <remotePort value="2020" />
         <layout type="log4net.Layout.XmlLayout">
             <locationInfo value="true" />
         </layout>
       </appender>
     

The logging framework used by the log server and applications must be log4net. LogMaster4Net will support other logging frameworks later.
