Greetings!

I'm trying to get a better idea on the number of connections a single Rsyslog 
server can support. I currently have it running in our pre-production 
environment as a smoke test for performance,  but I want to check on this prior 
to moving it into our production environment.

Does it use ephemeral ports or is it using a static port with a finite amount 
of load it can handle?

It uses ephemeral ports as the source for outbound connections, the way just about everything does.

It uses fixed ports for inbound connections, the way just about everything does.

people have reported rsyslog handling 1M logs/sec, and this is not limited by the network ports. What are you referring to when you say "a static port with a finite amount of load it can handle"?
