Rsyslog doesn't send logs to logstash server on port

I have two rsyslog-client and rsyslog-server. When I tried to "logger -p local1.notice SOMETHING" I don't see any information on server from one client, but from another I see logstash output.
I have copied rsyslog.conf, it's identical on these two servers. What's wrong?
When I test the connection via telnet x.x.x.x 10514 from problem server, telnet connection is ok and I see tcpdump logs. And when I change tcp listen logstash port to 514 all works properly.
When I do logger -p on problem client I don't see anything in tcpdump -i any on it.
But if I do the same thing on "OK" client I see outside traffic via tcpdump to port 10514 (or something different).
When I change logstash port to 514 problem solved.

#### MODULES ####
# The imjournal module bellow is now used as a message source instead of imuxsock.
$ModLoad imuxsock # provides support for local system logging (e.g. via logger command)
$ModLoad imjournal # provides access to the systemd journal
#$ModLoad imklog # reads kernel messages (the same are read from journald)
#$ModLoad immark # provides --MARK-- message capability
# Provides UDP syslog reception
#$ModLoad imudp
#$UDPServerRun 514
# Provides TCP syslog reception
#$ModLoad imtcp
#$InputTCPServerRun 514
#### GLOBAL DIRECTIVES ####
# Where to place auxiliary files
$WorkDirectory /var/lib/rsyslog
# Use default timestamp format
$ActionFileDefaultTemplate RSYSLOG_TraditionalFileFormat
# File syncing capability is disabled by default. This feature is usually not required,
# not useful and an extreme performance hit

This is test from OK client: logger -p local1.notice "test from problem centos-26"
Logstash output:
{
"@timestamp" => "2017-07-04T10:43:55.121Z",
"@version" => "1",
"message" => "Test From Centos-26",
"sysloghost" => "centos-26",
"severity" => "notice",
"facility" => "local1",
"programname" => "root",
"procid" => "-",
"host" => "192.168.253.26",
"port" => 40962,
"type" => "rsyslog"
}
and this is from problem node: logger -p local1.notice "test from problem centos-25"
Nothing in output
rsyslog.conf is identical on these clients.
This is from OK client:
