Hi,

I want to add an if condition for two timestamps. I want to say that if either of them don't match then the message should be dropped.

# if ![log\_timestamp] {

```
    # drop {}
    # }

    # if !([log_timestamp2]) {
    # drop {}
    # }

```

Both conditions need to be checked together or else the msgs with log\_timestamp2 getting dropped. Can you please suggest how that can be done. How to use an "or" between the two conditions
