syslog to Kafka

[snunez]

I have pfSense 2.7.2.
Is it possible to configure logs to be sent to Kafka?
I understand syslog-ng has the capability, but does the version released with pfSense have it?
How should I configure it to send log messages to kafka?

@snunez Configure pfSense to send logs to a remote log server (Status / System Logs / Settings / Remote Logging Options) and use syslog-ng on the remote system to provide the integration.

That said, have you considered a log system like Graylog instead of a messaging system?
