Syslog protocol is an event notification protocol that allows a machine to send event
notification messages across IP networks to event message collectors - also known as
Syslog servers. Syslog protocol is defined in the IETF RFC 3164 standard.
Since each process, application and operating system was written independently, there is
little uniformity to Syslog messages. For this reason, no assumption is made on the
contents of the messages other than the minimum requirements of its priority.
Syslog uses User Datagram Protocol (UDP) as its underlying transport layer mechanism.
The UDP port that has been assigned to Syslog is 514.
