Subject: Mysterious string "<4>" in LOG
Date: Sat, 15 Sep 2012 12:20:16 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <k31kov$5me$1@ger.gmane.org> (raw)
Hello,
A mysterious string "<4>" gets prepended in LOG:
Rule:
iptables -A INPUT -m state --state INVALID -m limit --limit 7200/h -j LOG --log-prefix "INPUT INVALID "
Result (sanitized):
Sep 15 11:46:17 s7 kernel: [227009.792828] <4>INPUT INVALID IN=eth0 OUT=
MAC=00:1b:21:ad:7b:d3:00:0c:db:4e:e8:00:08:00 SRC=**.210.155.237 DST=**.114.132.147 LEN=40 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00
TTL=52 ID=49676 PROTO=TCP SPT=6667 DPT=46271 WINDOW=0 RES=0x00 ACK SYN URGP=0
Happens with all LOG entries.
Is the string "<4>" in front of "INPUT INVALID" a new feature, or is it garbage due to a bug?
My system:
# iptables --version
iptables v1.4.14
# uname -a
Linux s7 3.6.0-rc5-my1 #1 SMP Wed Sep 12 19:22:44 CEST 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux
# dpkg -l | grep -i iptables
