TCP (Transmission Control Protocol)

Description: A communication protocol used to transmit data over the network. It provides ordered and error-checked delivery of a stream of octets (bytes) between applications and is considered a reliable protocol. In the context of telemetry data, TCP is most likely to be used when transferring data between computers, for example, via a relay or sending it to a SIEM.

NXLog Agent fully supports TCP and can receive and forward data using the TCP input and output modules.
Also known as: TCP/IP, TCP protocol
