Request: Support for TLS/Encrypted Syslog #37

Open crou opened 3 years ago

crou commented 3 years ago

Thanks @pseymour for this great piece of software! With users working from home, it would be great ship syslog to remove server but using TLS instead of plaintext. Online Logging platform like Splunk, Sumologic or other ELK often provide syslog endpoints but they are all in TLS. The message standard is the same as 5424, but with a TLS variant: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5425 (default port is 6514)

SyslogNet seems to support it: https://github.com/emertechie/SyslogNet/blob/master/SyslogNet.Client/Transport/SyslogEncryptedTcpSender.cs

Or I can try to implement it and do a PR if you are open to the idea. Thanks!

I'm definitely open to the idea. It would be easier if someone else (you, or anyone) could do it. I only have access to one syslog system. Any new ones I test against require me to set up the server and become mildly proficient in operating it.
