Forwarding all messages over TCP | LPIC-1 102-500 Exam original practice question

108.2Standard

Forward every facility and priority to log.example port 514 using legacy action syntax and TCP.

Which configuration line is appropriate?

Hint 1: Focus on the requirement

Identify what must change and what must remain unchanged. Then choose the command whose scope matches that requirement.

Hint 2: Check each command's role

Separate commands that display information, change state, remove data, or affect a child process.

*.* @@log.example:514: Correct. @@log.example:514 requests TCP forwarding for all selectors.

@@.* log.example:514: Incorrect. The selector and action syntax is malformed.
*.* /var/log/log.example:514: Incorrect. It is a local file path, not a remote TCP action.
