VIP Enterprise Gateway server.log syslog delivery not received in single line but instead spread into multiple lines in SIEM

Issue/Introduction

Some of VIP EG's server.log messages sent to SIEM via syslog were received in multiple lines per record as opposed to a single line.

For instance:

Environment

VIP Enterprise Gateway validation server syslog to Devo SIEM

Cause

Packet capture indicated that there was a '\n' (new line) in the midst of the record: 

465    6.787488    {IPaddr}    {IPaddr}    Syslog    226    LOCAL0.WARNING:  WARNING "2025-01-13 15:28:34.453 GMT+1100"  0.0.0.0 checkpointvalserver:1812 0 0 18517 "text=VSDS_GetUserDN_Ext call FAILED with status 1001 in 1 User Store\n" Thread-9820 tokenbinding.cpp\n

Resolution

The workaround solution is to configure the SIEM to ignore the '\n'.
This issue is also resolved by upgrading to VIP Enterprise Gateway version 9.11.1 to addresses this issue and is now available via LiveUpdate or manual update (download from VIP Manager).
