Syslog Log Sources

LogRhythm currently provides configuration guides for more than 60 syslog log sources, but the SIEM supports many more. 

Our goal is to provide a configuration guide for every device the SIEM supports. If your syslog log source is not included yet, rest assured that we are working on it. 

Syslog log sources cannot be moved from a Windows agent to a Linux agent (or vice versa) via the Move Log Sources Between Agents feature. Instead, retire the existing syslog log source and reconfigure it using the other agent.
