I have a number of hosts sending logs to rsyslog server, and I'd like to distinguish them by adding their IP, i.e. /var/log/10.10.10.1-messages.log, /var/log/10.10.10.2-messages.log and so on. At the moment all messages land in the same log file. Is it even possible to do so? I know there exist syslog template files, is this what I should be looking at? I would appreciate some helpful examples, since documentation is quite confusing me.
