Agentless log collection

Description

A technique to collect logs remotely without installing an agent on the log source. It is used when Agent-based log collection is not possible because of technical, administrative, or compliance restrictions.

NXLog Platform can operate in this mode, receiving logs over the network using transport protocols such as TCP, UDP, and HTTP. It then processes the logs and forwards them to a central location, such as NXLog Platform.
