Realtime Telemetry Log Streaming

Stream proxy access logs from your XProxy server to Graylog or SigNoz in real time — monitor multiple devices from one place, build dashboards, and alert on errors.

Why use centralized log streaming?

  • Unified monitoring — watch access and health across all XProxy nodes in real time.
  • Easy querying — filter by device, region, action, or error code.
  • Faster troubleshooting — quickly isolate errors, traffic spikes, or abnormal behavior.
Configure at: XProxy → General Settings → Telemetry Logs. Supported providers: Graylog (GELF UDP) and SigNoz (OTLP/HTTP).

Recommended labeling

  • Host Identifier — per-server name, e.g. sg-core-01, us-east-02.
  • Service Name — group by region or business unit, e.g. xproxy-region-a.

Every log carries these labels, making it easy to build dashboards and cross-device filters.

Option A — Graylog

Install Graylog

Requirements: Ubuntu Server 20.04 or 22.04, minimum 2 GB RAM (4 GB recommended).

bash
curl x-proxy.io/graylog | bash
Graylog installation

Create a GELF UDP input

  1. Open Graylog → System → Inputs.
  2. Choose GELF UDP and click Launch new input.
  3. Set Bind address to 0.0.0.0 and Port to 12201.
  4. Click Save.

  2. Toggle Enable Telemetry ON.
  3. Set Provider to Graylog.
  4. Enter Graylog Server as YOUR_GRAYLOG_IP:12201.
  5. Set Host Identifier and Service Name (optional but recommended).
  6. Click Save, then Test Connection.

Query examples in Graylog

graylog query
# By service/cluster
service_name:xproxy-region-a

# Only errors
error_code:!00000

# By action
action:CONNECT

# By device/slot
modem_position:3

Option B — SigNoz

Install SigNoz (Community)

Requirements: Ubuntu Server 20.04, 22.04, or 24.04. Skip if using SigNoz Cloud.

bash
curl x-proxy.io/signoz | bash
SigNoz installation

Configure XProxy for SigNoz

  1. Open General Settings → Telemetry Logs.
  2. Toggle Enable Telemetry ON and select SigNoz as Provider.
  3. Enter OTLP/HTTP Endpoint, e.g. https://ingest.us.signoz.cloud:4318.
  4. Paste your Ingestion Key (SigNoz Cloud) or leave blank for local installs.
  5. Set Service Name (e.g. xproxy-region-a).
  6. Click Save, then Test Connection.

Query examples in SigNoz

signoz query
# By service name
service.name = "xproxy-region-a"

# Only errors
attributes.error_code != "00000"

# By action
attributes.action = "CONNECT"

# By device/slot
attributes.modem_position = 3

Log field reference

FieldDescription
log_dateDate of the log (DD/MM)
log_timeTime of the log (HH:MM:SS)
proxy_serviceService group name (e.g. MAIN)
modem_positionDevice/slot index serving the request
proxy_protocolHTTP or SOCKS5
proxy_portProxy listening port on XProxy
proxy_userUsername used to authenticate (empty for IP whitelist)
client_ipIP of the client using the proxy
destination_hostTarget host requested via proxy
destination_portTarget port
actionCONNECT (tunnel) or ACCESS (HTTP request)
error_code00000 = success; non-zero = error
received_bytesBytes from destination to client
sent_bytesBytes from client to destination

Error code reference

  • 00000 — Success (connection closed normally)
  • 00001–00009 — Authentication errors (ACL/username/password)
  • 00010 — Traffic limit exceeded
  • 00011–00019 — Connection errors (socket/bind/connect)
  • 00020–00029 — Internal errors (e.g. memory allocation)
  • 00030–00039 — HTTP CONNECT proxy redirection errors
  • 00050–00069 — SOCKS5 proxy redirection errors
  • 00090–00099 — Connection timeouts / network issues
  • 00100 — Host not found
  • 00200–00299 — UDP portmapper errors
  • 00300–00399 — TCP portmapper errors
  • 00400–00499 — SOCKS proxy errors
  • 00500–00599 — HTTP proxy errors

Troubleshooting

  • No data — ensure telemetry is enabled and you clicked Save. Generate traffic via any proxy port.
  • Graylog — confirm the GELF UDP input is running on port 12201 and firewall allows UDP 12201.
  • SigNoz — endpoint must include port 4318 and be reachable via HTTPS. Verify ingestion key and workspace region.
