ATTRIBUTES
hostname
The IP to bind the daemon to. By default, binds to 127.0.0.1, which means that the server can only be accessed from localhost. Use 0.0.0.0 to bind to all interfaces.
port
The port to bind to, defaults to 5140, as the default syslog port (514) is likely already taken by your regular syslogd, and needs root permissio to bind to it.
protocol
The protocol to listen on, currently only UDP is supported.
