I wanted to drop the log message in syslog-ng and i tried the below way to drop them but seems it doesn't work. could you help if there is any other way.
To skip the processing of a message without sending it to a destination, create a log statement with the appropriate filters, but do not include any destination in the statement, and use the final flag.
Example: Skipping messages
The following log statement drops all debug level messages without any further processing.
filter demo_debugfilter { level(debug); };
log { source(s_all); filter(demo_debugfilter); flags(final); };
