# SysLog Class The Syslog class is used to send and receive network system log packets. ## Syntax ```text SysLog ``` ## Remarks The Syslog class implements a lightweight BSD syslog client as specified in RFC 3164 (User Datagram Protocol [UDP]), RFC 5425 (Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security [SSL/TLS]), and RFC 6587 (Transmission Control Protocol [TCP]). The class is used to send and receive BSD system network logging packets. The first step in using the Syslog class is to set [LocalHost](#localhost-property-syslog-class) and [LocalPort](#localport-property-syslog-class) to the interface and port on which the host will be receiving syslog packets, and then call the [Activate](#activate-method-syslog-class) method. For each packet, the class will parse the headers and message and fire a [PacketIn](#packetin-event-syslog-class) event. ## Property List *The following is the full list of the properties of the class with short descriptions. Click on the links for further details.* | | | | --- | --- | | [Active](#active-property-syslog-class) | This property indicates whether the class is active. | | [LocalHost](#localhost-property-syslog-class) | The name of the local host or user-assigned IP interface through which connections are initiated or accepted. | | [LocalPort](#localport-property-syslog-class) | This property indicates the port in the local host where Syslog binds. | | [RemoteHost](#remotehost-property-syslog-class) | This property sets a specific host for outgoing log packets. | | [RemotePort](#remoteport-property-syslog-class) | This property sets a specific port for outgoing log packets. | | [SSLAcceptServerCert](#sslacceptservercert-property-syslog-class) | Instructs the class to unconditionally accept the server certificate that matches the supplied certificate. | | [SSLAuthenticateClients](#sslauthenticateclients-property-syslog-class) | If set to True, the server asks the client(s) for a certificate. | | [SSLCert](#sslcert-property-syslog-class) | The certificate to be used during Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) negotiation. | | [SSLEnabled](#sslenabled-property-syslog-class) | This property indicates whether Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (TLS/SSL) is enabled. | | [SSLServerCert](#sslservercert-property-syslog-class) | The server certificate for the last established connection. | | [UseTCP](#usetcp-property-syslog-class) | This property specifies whether Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is used. | ## Method List *The following is the full list of the methods of the class with short descriptions.

Active Property ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) This property indicates whether the class is active. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) int GetActive(); Unicode (Windows) BOOL GetActive(); ``` ## Default Value FALSE ## Remarks This property indicates whether the class is currently active and can send or receive data. Use the [Activate](#activate-method-syslog-class) and [Deactivate](#deactivate-method-syslog-class) methods to control whether the class is active. This property is read-only and not available at design time. ## Data Type Boolean # LocalHost Property ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) The name of the local host or user-assigned IP interface through which connections are initiated or accepted. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) char* GetLocalHost();int SetLocalHost(const char* lpszLocalHost); Unicode (Windows) LPWSTR GetLocalHost();INT SetLocalHost(LPCWSTR lpszLocalHost); ``` ## Default Value "" ## Remarks This property contains the name of the local host as obtained by the *gethostname()* system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address. In multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface) setting LocalHost to the IP address of an interface will make the class initiate connections (or accept in the case of server classes) only through that interface. It is recommended to provide an IP address rather than a hostname when setting this property to ensure the desired interface is used. If the class is connected, the LocalHost property shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface). NOTE: LocalHost is not persistent. You must always set it in code, and never in the property window. ## Data Type String # LocalPort Property ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) This property indicates the port in the local host where Syslog binds. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) int GetLocalPort();int SetLocalPort(int iLocalPort); Unicode (Windows) INT GetLocalPort();INT SetLocalPort(INT iLocalPort); ``` ## Default Value 514 ## Remarks The LocalPort property must be set before Syslog is activated. It instructs the class to bind to a specific port (or communication endpoint) in the local machine. Setting it to *0* enables the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP stack to choose a port at random. The chosen port will be shown by the LocalPort property after the connection is established. LocalPort cannot be changed once the class is [Active](#active-property-syslog-class). Any attempt to set the LocalPort property when the class is [Active](#active-property-syslog-class) will generate an error. The LocalPort property is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port in the client side. ## Data Type Integer # RemoteHost Property ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) This property sets a specific host for outgoing log packets. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) char* GetRemoteHost();int SetRemoteHost(const char* lpszRemoteHost); Unicode (Windows) LPWSTR GetRemoteHost();INT SetRemoteHost(LPCWSTR lpszRemoteHost); ``` ## Default Value "255.255.255.255" ## Remarks When a call is made to the [SendPacket](#sendpacket-method-syslog-class) method, the class will send it to whatever value is in RemoteHost. The default value is the broadcast address, "255.255.255.255". ## Data Type String # RemotePort Property ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) This property sets a specific port for outgoing log packets. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) int GetRemotePort();int SetRemotePort(int iRemotePort); Unicode (Windows) INT GetRemotePort();INT SetRemotePort(INT iRemotePort); ``` ## Default Value 514 ## Remarks When a call is made to the [SendPacket](#sendpacket-method-syslog-class) method, the class will send to [RemoteHost](#remotehost-property-syslog-class) on RemotePort. The default value is 514, the standard port as defined in the BSD syslog RFC 3164. ## Data Type Integer # SSLAcceptServerCert Property ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) Instructs the class to unconditionally accept the server certificate that matches the supplied certificate. ## Syntax ```text IPWorksCertificate* GetSSLAcceptServerCert(); int SetSSLAcceptServerCert(IPWorksCertificate* val); ``` ## Remarks If it finds any issues with the certificate presented by the server, the class will normally terminate the connection with an error. You may override this behavior by supplying a value for SSLAcceptServerCert. If the certificate supplied in SSLAcceptServerCert is the same as the certificate presented by the server, then the server certificate is accepted unconditionally, and the connection will continue normally. NOTE: This functionality is provided only for cases in which you otherwise know that you are communicating with the right server. If used improperly, this property may create a security breach. Use it at your own risk. ## Data Type [IPWorksCertificate](#certificate-type) # SSLAuthenticateClients Property ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) If set to True, the server asks the client(s) for a certificate. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) int GetSSLAuthenticateClients();int SetSSLAuthenticateClients(int bSSLAuthenticateClients); Unicode (Windows) BOOL GetSSLAuthenticateClients();INT SetSSLAuthenticateClients(BOOL bSSLAuthenticateClients); ``` ## Default Value FALSE ## Remarks This property is used in conjunction with the [SSLClientAuthentication](#sslclientauthentication-event-syslog-class) event. Please refer to the documentation of the [SSLClientAuthentication](#sslclientauthentication-event-syslog-class) event for details. ## Data Type Boolean # SSLCert Property ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) The certificate to be used during Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) negotiation. ## Syntax ```text IPWorksCertificate* GetSSLCert(); int SetSSLCert(IPWorksCertificate* val); ``` ## Remarks This property includes the digital certificate that the class will use during SSL negotiation. Set this property to a valid certificate before starting SSL negotiation. To set a certificate, you may set the [Encoded](#Certificate_f_Encoded) field to the encoded certificate. To select a certificate, use the store and subject fields. ## Data Type [IPWorksCertificate](#certificate-type) # SSLEnabled Property ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) This property indicates whether Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (TLS/SSL) is enabled. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) int GetSSLEnabled();int SetSSLEnabled(int bSSLEnabled); Unicode (Windows) BOOL GetSSLEnabled();INT SetSSLEnabled(BOOL bSSLEnabled); ``` ## Default Value FALSE ## Remarks This setting specifies whether TLS/SSL is enabled in the class. When False (default), the class operates in plaintext mode. When True, TLS/SSL is enabled. NOTE: TLS/SSL can be used only when [UseTCP](#usetcp-property-syslog-class) is *true*. This property is not available at design time. ## Data Type Boolean # SSLServerCert Property ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) The server certificate for the last established connection. ## Syntax ```text IPWorksCertificate* GetSSLServerCert(); ``` ## Remarks This property contains the server certificate for the last established connection. SSLServerCert is reset every time a new connection is attempted. This property is read-only. ## Data Type [IPWorksCertificate](#certificate-type) # UseTCP Property ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) This property specifies whether Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is used. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) int GetUseTCP();int SetUseTCP(int bUseTCP); Unicode (Windows) BOOL GetUseTCP();INT SetUseTCP(BOOL bUseTCP); ``` ## Default Value FALSE ## Remarks This property specifies whether TCP is used. By default, this property is False and UDP is used. When set to True, TCP will be used as the underlying protocol. When set to True, the following additional settings are also applicable: - [SSLAuthenticateClients](#sslauthenticateclients-property-syslog-class) - [SSLEnabled](#sslenabled-property-syslog-class) - [SSLAcceptServerCert](#sslacceptservercert-property-syslog-class) - [SSLCert](#sslcert-property-syslog-class) - [SSLServerCert](#sslservercert-property-syslog-class) - [TCPMessageDelimiter](#TCPMessageDelimiter) ## Data Type Boolean # Activate Method ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) This method enables sending and receiving of data. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) int Activate(); Unicode (Windows) INT Activate(); ``` ## Remarks This method enables sending and receiving of data. When called, the class will create a communication endpoint (socket) that can be used for sending and receiving User Datagram Protocol (UDP) messages. This method must be called before using the class to send and receive data. If the [UseConnection](#UseConnection) configuration setting is set to *true*, then a local association (connection) to the remote host is also created. ## Error Handling (C++) This method returns a result code; *0* indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the *GetLastError()* method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the *GetLastErrorCode()* method after it returns.) # Config Method ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) Sets or retrieves a configuration setting. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) char* Config(const char* lpszConfigurationString); Unicode (Windows) LPWSTR Config(LPCWSTR lpszConfigurationString); ``` ## Remarks Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve [configuration settings](#config-settings-syslog-class) for the class. These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these *internal properties* is provided through the Config method. To set a configuration setting named *PROPERTY*, you must call *Config("PROPERTY=VALUE")*, where *VALUE* is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter). To read (query) the value of a [configuration setting](#config-settings-syslog-class), you must call *Config("PROPERTY")*. The value will be returned as a string. ## Error Handling (C++) This method returns a String value; after it returns, call the *GetLastErrorCode()* method to obtain its result code; *0* indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the *GetLastError()* method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. # Deactivate Method ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) This method disables sending and receive of data. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) int Deactivate(); Unicode (Windows) INT Deactivate(); ``` ## Remarks This method disables sending and receiving of data. When called, the class will destroy the existing socket and disable data communications. ## Error Handling (C++) This method returns a result code; *0* indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the *GetLastError()* method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the *GetLastErrorCode()* method after it returns.) # DoEvents Method ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) This method processes events from the internal message queue. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) int DoEvents(); Unicode (Windows) INT DoEvents(); ``` ## Remarks When DoEvents is called, the class processes any available events. If no events are available, it waits for a preset period of time, and then returns. ## Error Handling (C++) This method returns a result code; *0* indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the *GetLastError()* method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the *GetLastErrorCode()* method after it returns.) # Reset Method ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) This method will reset the class. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) int Reset(); Unicode (Windows) INT Reset(); ``` ## Remarks This method will reset the class's properties to their default values. ## Error Handling (C++) This method returns a result code; *0* indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the *GetLastError()* method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the *GetLastErrorCode()* method after it returns.) # ResolveRemoteHost Method ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) This method resolves the hostname in RemoteHost to an IP address. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) int ResolveRemoteHost(); Unicode (Windows) INT ResolveRemoteHost(); ``` ## Remarks This method resolves the hostname specified by [RemoteHost](#remotehost-property-syslog-class) to an IP address. The resolved value is available in the [RemoteHost](#remotehost-property-syslog-class) property after this method returns. In most cases, calling this method is not necessary; the class will resolve the hostname automatically when needed. If [DelayHostResolution](#DelayHostResolution) is *true*, this method may be called to manually resolve [RemoteHost](#remotehost-property-syslog-class), if desired. ## Error Handling (C++) This method returns a result code; *0* indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the *GetLastError()* method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the *GetLastErrorCode()* method after it returns.) # SendPacket Method ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) This method sends a log packet to RemoteHost . ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) int SendPacket(int iFacility, int iSeverity, const char* lpszMessage); Unicode (Windows) INT SendPacket(INT iFacility, INT iSeverity, LPCWSTR lpszMessage); ``` ## Remarks System log packets are composed of three main sections, each of which can be broken down into two smaller pieces. The first section is the PRI, which contains the originating *Facility* and *Severity* of the *Message*. *Facility* is a value from 0 to 23, with each value being a different part of the system: | | | | --- | --- | | 0 | Kernel messages | | 1 | User-level messages | | 2 | Mail system | | 3 | System daemons | | 4 | Security/authorization messages | | 5 | Messages generated internally by syslogd | | 6 | Line printer subsystem | | 7 | Network news subsystem | | 8 | UUCP subsystem | | 9 | Clock daemon | | 10 | Security/authorization messages | | 11 | FTP daemon | | 12 | NTP subsystem | | 13 | Log audit | | 14 | Log alert | | 15 | Clock daemon | | 16 | Local use | | 17 | Local use | | 18 | Local use | | 19 | Local use | | 20 | Local use | | 21 | Local use | | 22 | Local use | | 23 | Local use | *Severity* is a value from 0 to 7 using the following convention: | | | | --- | --- | | 0 | Emergency - the system is unusable | | 1 | Alert - action must be taken immediately | | 2 | Critical - critical conditions exist | | 3 | Error - error conditions exist | | 4 | Warning - warning conditions exist | | 5 | Notice - normal but significant condition | | 6 | Informational - informative message | | 7 | Debug - debug-level messages | The second section contains a timestamp and hostname, both of which are automatically generated by the class. The third section is the *Message*. ## Error Handling (C++) This method returns a result code; *0* indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the *GetLastError()* method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the *GetLastErrorCode()* method after it returns.) # Connected Event ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) This event is fired immediately after a connection completes (or fails). ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) virtual int FireConnected(SysLogConnectedEventParams *e); typedef struct { const char *RemoteAddress; int RemotePort; int StatusCode; const char *Description; int reserved; } SysLogConnectedEventParams; Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireConnected(SysLogConnectedEventParams *e); typedef struct { LPCWSTR RemoteAddress; INT RemotePort; INT StatusCode; LPCWSTR Description; INT reserved; } SysLogConnectedEventParams; ``` ## Remarks This event fires after a connection completes or fails. *StatusCode* is the value returned by the system Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP stack. This will be *0* if the connection was successful. *Description* contains a human readable description of the status. This will be *OK* if the connection was successful. *RemoteAddress* is the IP address of the remote host. *RemotePort* is the port on the remote host. # ConnectionStatus Event ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) This event is fired to indicate changes in a connection state. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) virtual int FireConnectionStatus(SysLogConnectionStatusEventParams *e); typedef struct { const char *ConnectionEvent; int StatusCode; const char *Description; int reserved; } SysLogConnectionStatusEventParams; Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireConnectionStatus(SysLogConnectionStatusEventParams *e); typedef struct { LPCWSTR ConnectionEvent; INT StatusCode; LPCWSTR Description; INT reserved; } SysLogConnectionStatusEventParams; ``` ## Remarks The ConnectionStatus event is fired when the connection state changes: for example, upon completion of a firewall or proxy connection or completion of a security handshake. The *ConnectionEvent* parameter indicates the type of connection event. Values may include the following: | | | | --- | --- | | | Firewall connection complete. | | | Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) or S/Shell handshake complete (where applicable). | | | Remote host connection complete. | | | Remote host disconnected. | | | SSL or S/Shell connection broken. | | | Firewall host disconnected. | *StatusCode* has the error code returned by the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP stack. *Description* contains a description of this code. The value of *StatusCode* is equal to the value of the error. # Disconnected Event ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) This event is fired when a connection is closed. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) virtual int FireDisconnected(SysLogDisconnectedEventParams *e); typedef struct { const char *RemoteAddress; int RemotePort; int StatusCode; const char *Description; int reserved; } SysLogDisconnectedEventParams; Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireDisconnected(SysLogDisconnectedEventParams *e); typedef struct { LPCWSTR RemoteAddress; INT RemotePort; INT StatusCode; LPCWSTR Description; INT reserved; } SysLogDisconnectedEventParams; ``` ## Remarks This event fires when a connection is closed. *StatusCode* is the value returned by the system Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP stack. This will be *0* if the connection was successful. *Description* contains a human readable description of the status. This will be *OK* if the connection was successful. *RemoteAddress* is the IP address of the remote host. *RemotePort* is the port on the remote host. # Error Event ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) Fired when information is available about errors during data delivery. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) virtual int FireError(SysLogErrorEventParams *e); typedef struct { int ErrorCode; const char *Description; int reserved; } SysLogErrorEventParams; Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireError(SysLogErrorEventParams *e); typedef struct { INT ErrorCode; LPCWSTR Description; INT reserved; } SysLogErrorEventParams; ``` ## Remarks The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the class fails with an error. The *ErrorCode* parameter contains an error code, and the *Description* parameter contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the [Error Codes](#trappable-errors-syslog-class) section. # PacketIn Event ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) This event fires whenever a system log packet is received. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) virtual int FirePacketIn(SysLogPacketInEventParams *e); typedef struct { int FacilityCode; const char *Facility; int SeverityCode; const char *Severity; const char *Timestamp; const char *Hostname; const char *Message; int Conforms; const char *Packet; int lenPacket; const char *SourceAddress; int SourcePort; int reserved; } SysLogPacketInEventParams; Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FirePacketIn(SysLogPacketInEventParams *e); typedef struct { INT FacilityCode; LPCWSTR Facility; INT SeverityCode; LPCWSTR Severity; LPCWSTR Timestamp; LPCWSTR Hostname; LPCWSTR Message; BOOL Conforms; LPCSTR Packet; INT lenPacket; LPCWSTR SourceAddress; INT SourcePort; INT reserved; } SysLogPacketInEventParams; ``` ## Remarks System log packets are composed of three main sections, each of which can be broken down into two smaller pieces. The first section is the PRI, which contains the originating *FacilityCode* and *SeverityCode* of the *Message*. *FacilityCode* is a value from 0 to 23, with each value being a different part of the system. *Facility* is a string representation of *FacilityCode* based on the following convention: | | | | --- | --- | | 0 | Kernel messages | | 1 | User-level messages | | 2 | Mail system | | 3 | System daemons | | 4 | Security/authorization messages | | 5 | Messages generated internally by syslogd | | 6 | Line printer subsystem | | 7 | Network news subsystem | | 8 | UUCP subsystem | | 9 | Clock daemon | | 10 | Security/authorization messages | | 11 | FTP daemon | | 12 | NTP subsystem | | 13 | Log audit | | 14 | Log alert | | 15 | Clock daemon | | 16 | Local use | | 17 | Local use | | 18 | Local use | | 19 | Local use | | 20 | Local use | | 21 | Local use | | 22 | Local use | | 23 | Local use | *SeverityCode* is a value from 0 to 7. *Severity* is a string representation of *SeverityCode* using the following convention: | | | | --- | --- | | 0 | Emergency - the system is unusable. | | 1 | Alert - action must be taken immediately. | | 2 | Critical - critical conditions exist. | | 3 | Error - error conditions exist. | | 4 | Warning - warning conditions exist. | | 5 | Notice - normal but significant condition. | | 6 | Informational - informative message. | | 7 | Debug - debug-level messages. | The second section contains the *Timestamp* and *Hostname*. Timestamp is a string that should conform to the standard structure "MMM DD, HH:MM:SS". The class will search for the *Timestamp* and verify that it conforms. If it conforms, the class will set *Hostname*, otherwise, everything after the PRI will be placed in *Message*. If *Conforms* is True, then the original syslog packet conforms to the syslog RFC and *Timestamp*, *Hostname*, and *Message* will all have valid values. Otherwise, you should parse the contents of *Packet* to verify the fields manually. *SourceAddress* and *SourcePort* are the address and port from which *Packet* was sent. This can be an intermediate syslog server that is simply forwarding packets from the original host. # SSLClientAuthentication Event ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) This is event fired when the client presents its credentials to the server. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) virtual int FireSSLClientAuthentication(SysLogSSLClientAuthenticationEventParams *e); typedef struct { const char *RemoteAddress; int RemotePort; const char *CertEncoded; int lenCertEncoded; const char *CertSubject; const char *CertIssuer; const char *Status; int Accept; int reserved; } SysLogSSLClientAuthenticationEventParams; Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireSSLClientAuthentication(SysLogSSLClientAuthenticationEventParams *e); typedef struct { LPCWSTR RemoteAddress; INT RemotePort; LPCSTR CertEncoded; INT lenCertEncoded; LPCWSTR CertSubject; LPCWSTR CertIssuer; LPCWSTR Status; BOOL Accept; INT reserved; } SysLogSSLClientAuthenticationEventParams; ``` ## Remarks This event fires when a client connects to the class and presents a certificate for authentication. The *Accept* parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue. When *Accept* is False, *Status* shows why the verification failed (otherwise, *Status* contains the string "OK"). *RemoteAddress* is the IP address of the connecting client. *RemotePort* is the source port of the connecting client. *CertEncoded* is the base64-encoded certificate presented by the client. *CertSubject* is the subject of the certificate presented by the client. *CertIssuer* is the subject of the issuer of the certificate presented by the client. *Status* is the status of the certificate. *Accept* defines whether the certificate is accepted. # SSLServerAuthentication Event ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) This event fires when connecting to the server. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) virtual int FireSSLServerAuthentication(SysLogSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams *e); typedef struct { const char *RemoteAddress; int RemotePort; const char *CertEncoded; int lenCertEncoded; const char *CertSubject; const char *CertIssuer; const char *Status; int Accept; int reserved; } SysLogSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams; Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireSSLServerAuthentication(SysLogSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams *e); typedef struct { LPCWSTR RemoteAddress; INT RemotePort; LPCSTR CertEncoded; INT lenCertEncoded; LPCWSTR CertSubject; LPCWSTR CertIssuer; LPCWSTR Status; BOOL Accept; INT reserved; } SysLogSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams; ``` ## Remarks During this event, the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. The *Accept* parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue. When *Accept* is False, *Status* shows why the verification failed (otherwise, *Status* contains the string *OK*). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the *Accept* parameter to True. *RemoteAddress* is the IP address of the server. *RemotePort* is the source port of the server. *CertEncoded* is the base64-encoded certificate presented by the server. *CertSubject* is the subject of the certificate presented by the server. *CertIssuer* is the subject of the issuer of the certificate presented by the server. *Status* is the status of the certificate. *Accept* defines whether the certificate is accepted. # SSLStatus Event ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) This event shows the progress of the secure connection. ## Syntax ```text ANSI (Cross Platform) virtual int FireSSLStatus(SysLogSSLStatusEventParams *e); typedef struct { const char *RemoteAddress; int RemotePort; const char *Message; int reserved; } SysLogSSLStatusEventParams; Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireSSLStatus(SysLogSSLStatusEventParams *e); typedef struct { LPCWSTR RemoteAddress; INT RemotePort; LPCWSTR Message; INT reserved; } SysLogSSLStatusEventParams; ``` ## Remarks The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only.

NOTE: This store type is only available in Java and .NET. | | 23 (cstPKCS11) | The certificate is present on a physical security key accessible via a PKCS#11 interface. To use a security key, create a new [Certificate](#certificate-type) object and pass cstPKCS11 as the [StoreType](#Certificate_f_StoreType), the full path of the PKCS#11 DLL as the [Store](#Certificate_f_Store), and the PIN as the [StorePassword](#Certificate_f_StorePassword). Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key (without CertMgr): Alternatively, collect the necessary data using the [CertMgr](CertMgr.md#CertMgr) class by calling the [ListStoreCertificates](CertMgr.md#CertMgr_m_ListStoreCertificates) method after setting the corresponding properties accordingly. The certificate information returned in the [CertList](CertMgr.md#CertMgr_e_CertList) event's CertEncoded parameter may be saved for later use. When using a certificate obtained with this approach, pass the previously saved security key information as the [Store](#Certificate_f_Store) and set [StorePassword](#Certificate_f_StorePassword) to the PIN. Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key (with CertMgr): | | 99 (cstAuto) | The store type is automatically detected from the input data.

The possible values are the strings "V1", "V2", and "V3". **Subject** *char** *Default Value: ""* The subject of the certificate used for client authentication. This property must be set after all other certificate properties are set. When this property is set, a search is performed in the current certificate store to locate a certificate with a matching subject. If a matching certificate is found, the field is set to the full subject of the matching certificate. If an exact match is not found, the store is searched for subjects containing the value of the property. If a match is still not found, the property is set to an empty string, and no certificate is selected. The special value "*" picks a random certificate in the certificate store. The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=example@email.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows: | Field | Meaning | | --- | --- | | CN | Common Name. This is commonly a hostname like www.server.com. | | O | Organization | | OU | Organizational Unit | | L | Locality | | S | State | | C | Country | | E | Email Address | If a field value contains a comma, it must be quoted. **Encoded** *char** *Default Value: ""* The certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded). This field is used to assign a specific certificate. The [Store](#Certificate_f_Store) and [Subject](#Certificate_f_Subject) fields also may be used to specify a certificate. When [Encoded](#Certificate_f_Encoded) is set, a search is initiated in the current [Store](#Certificate_f_Store) for the private key of the certificate. If the key is found, [Subject](#Certificate_f_Subject) is updated to reflect the full subject of the selected certificate; otherwise, [Subject](#Certificate_f_Subject) is set to an empty string. ## Constructors ```text Certificate() ``` Creates a instance whose properties can be set. ```text Certificate(const char* lpEncoded, int lenEncoded) ``` Parses * Encoded * as an X.509 public key. ```text Certificate(int iStoreType, const char* lpStore, int lenStore, const char* lpszStorePassword, const char* lpszSubject) ``` * StoreType * identifies the type of certificate store to use. See for descriptions of the different certificate stores. * Store * is a byte array containing the certificate data. * StorePassword * is the password used to protect the store. After the store has been successfully opened, the component will attempt to find the certificate identified by * Subject * . This can be either a complete or a substring match of the X.509 certificate's subject Distinguished Name (DN). The * Subject * parameter can also take an MD5, SHA-1, or SHA-256 thumbprint of the certificate to load in a "Thumbprint=value" format. # Config Settings ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) The class accepts one or more of the following *configuration settings*.

If desired, [ResolveRemoteHost](#resolveremotehost-method-syslog-class) may be called to manually resolve the value in [RemoteHost](#remotehost-property-syslog-class) at any time. The default value is *false*. **DestinationAddress**: Used to get the destination address from the packet information.If [CaptureIPPacketInfo](#CaptureIPPacketInfo) is set to True, then this will be populated with the packet's destination address when a packet is received. This information will be accessible in the DataIn event. NOTE: This configuration setting is available only in Windows. **DontFragment**: Used to set the Don't Fragment flag of outgoing packets.When set to True, packets sent by the class will have the Don't Fragment flag set. The default value is False. **LocalHost**: The name of the local host through which connections are initiated or accepted. The [LocalHost](#localhost-property-syslog-class) setting contains the name of the local host as obtained by the *gethostname()* system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address. In multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface), setting LocalHost to the value of an interface will make the class initiate connections (or accept in the case of server classes) only through that interface. If the class is connected, the [LocalHost](#localhost-property-syslog-class) setting shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface). **LocalPort**: The port in the local host where the class binds. This configuration setting must be set before a connection is attempted. It instructs the class to bind to a specific port (or communication endpoint) in the local machine. Setting this to 0 (default) enables the system to choose a port at random. The chosen port will be shown by [LocalPort](#localport-property-syslog-class) after the connection is established. [LocalPort](#localport-property-syslog-class) cannot be changed once a connection is made. Any attempt to set this when a connection is active will generate an error. This configuration setting is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port on the client side. An example is the remote shell (rsh) service in UNIX systems. **MaxPacketSize**: The maximum length of the packets that can be received.This configuration setting specifies the maximum size of the datagrams that the class will accept without truncation. **QOSDSCPValue**: Used to specify an arbitrary QOS/DSCP setting (optional).[UseConnection](#UseConnection) must be True to use this configuration setting. This option allows you to specify an arbitrary DSCP value between 0 and 63. The default is 0. When set to the default value, the component will not set a DSCP value. NOTE: This configuration setting uses the qWAVE API and is available only on Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, and later. **QOSTrafficType**: Used to specify QOS/DSCP settings (optional).[UseConnection](#UseConnection) must be True to use this setting. You may specify either the text or integer values: BestEffort (0), Background (1), ExcellentEffort (2), AudioVideo (3), Voice (4), and Control (5). NOTE: This configuration setting uses the qWAVE API and is available only on Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 or above. NOTE: QOSTrafficType must be set before setting [Active](#active-property-syslog-class) to True. **ShareLocalPort**: If set to True, allows more than one instance of the class to be active on the same local port.This option must be set before the class is activated through the [Active](#active-property-syslog-class) property or it will have no effect. The default value for this setting is False. **SourceIPAddress**: Used to set the source IP address used when sending a packet.This configuration setting can be used to override the source IP address when sending a packet. NOTE: This configuration setting is available only in Windows and requires that the winpcap library be installed (or npcap with winpcap compatibility). **SourceMacAddress**: Used to set the source MAC address used when sending a packet.This configuration setting can be used to override the source MAC address when sending a packet. NOTE: This configuration setting is available only in Windows and requires that the winpcap library be installed (or npcap with winpcap compatibility). **UseConnection**: Determines whether to use a connected socket.[UseConnection](#UseConnection) specifies whether or not the class should use a connected socket. The connection is defined as an association in between the local address/port and the remote address/port. As such, this is not a connection in the traditional Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) sense. It means only that the class will send and receive data to and from the specified destination. The default value for this setting is False. **UseIPv6**: Whether or not to use IPv6.By default, the component expects an IPv4 address for local and remote host properties, and it will create an IPv4 socket. To use IPv6 instead, set this to True. ### Socket Config Settings **AbsoluteTimeout**: Determines whether timeouts are inactivity timeouts or absolute timeouts.If [AbsoluteTimeout](#AbsoluteTimeout) is set to True, any method that does not complete within Timeout seconds will be aborted. By default, *AbsoluteTimeout* is False, and the timeout is an inactivity timeout. NOTE: This option is not valid for User Datagram Protocol (UDP) ports. **FirewallData**: Used to send extra data to the firewall.When the firewall is a tunneling proxy, use this property to send custom (additional) headers to the firewall (e.g., headers for custom authentication schemes). **InBufferSize**: The size in bytes of the incoming queue of the socket.This is the size of an internal queue in the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be receiving. In some cases, increasing the value of the *InBufferSize* setting can provide significant improvements in performance. Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the class is activated the *InBufferSize* reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small. **OutBufferSize**: The size in bytes of the outgoing queue of the socket.This is the size of an internal queue in the TCP/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be sending. In some cases, increasing the value of the *OutBufferSize* setting can provide significant improvements in performance. Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the class is activated the *OutBufferSize* reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small. ### Base Config Settings **BuildInfo**: Information about the product's build.When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the product's build. **CodePage**: The system code page used for Unicode to Multibyte translations.The default code page is Unicode UTF-8 (65001).

It will return the following information: - Product: The product the license is for. - Product Key: The key the license was generated from. - License Source: Where the license was found (e.g., RuntimeLicense, License File). - License Type: The type of license installed (e.g., Royalty Free, Single Server). - Last Valid Build: The last valid build number for which the license will work. **MaskSensitiveData**: Whether sensitive data is masked in log messages.In certain circumstances it may be beneficial to mask sensitive data, like passwords, in log messages. Set this to *true* to mask sensitive data. The default is *true*. **ProcessIdleEvents**: Whether the class uses its internal event loop to process events when the main thread is idle.If set to False, the class will not fire internal idle events. Set this to False to use the class in a background thread on Mac OS. By default, this setting is True. **SelectWaitMillis**: The length of time in milliseconds the class will wait when DoEvents is called if there are no events to process.If there are no events to process when [DoEvents](#doevents-method-syslog-class) is called, the class will wait for the amount of time specified here before returning. The default value is 20. **UseInternalSecurityAPI**: Whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation. When set to *false*, the class will use the system security libraries by default to perform cryptographic functions where applicable. Setting this configuration setting to *true* tells the class to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries. On Windows, this setting is set to *false* by default. On Linux/macOS, this setting is set to *true* by default. To use the system security libraries for Linux, OpenSSL support must be enabled. For more information on how to enable OpenSSL, please refer to the [OpenSSL Notes](platforms.md) section. # Trappable Errors ([SysLog](#syslog-class) Class) ## Error Handling (C++) Call the *GetLastErrorCode()* method to obtain the last called method's result code; *0* indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. Known error codes are listed below.
