Each message will be acknowledged after successfully writing the message to a FlowFile. Each FlowFile will contain data portion of one or more RELP frames. In the case where the RELP frames contain syslog messages, the output of this processor can be sent to a ParseSyslog processor for further processing.</p><h3>Tags: </h3><p>listen, relp, tcp, logs</p><h3>Properties: </h3><p>In the list below, the names of required properties appear in <strong>bold</strong>. Any other properties (not in bold) are considered optional. The table also indicates any default values, and whether a property supports the <a href="../../../../../html/expression-language-guide.html">NiFi Expression Language</a>.</p><table id="properties"><tr><th>Display Name</th><th>API Name</th><th>Default Value</th><th>Allowable Values</th><th>Description</th></tr><tr><td id="name">Local Network Interface</td><td>Local Network Interface</td><td></td><td id="allowable-values"></td><td id="description">The name of a local network interface to be used to restrict listening to a specific LAN.<br/><strong>Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using variable registry only)</strong></td></tr><tr><td id="name"><strong>Port</strong></td><td>Port</td><td></td><td id="allowable-values"></td><td id="description">The port to listen on for communication.<br/><strong>Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using variable registry only)</strong></td></tr><tr><td id="name"><strong>Receive Buffer Size</strong></td><td>Receive Buffer Size</td><td id="default-value">65507 B</td><td id="allowable-values"></td><td id="description">The size of each buffer used to receive messages.
