Summary
The documentation is generally Linux-focused, as most examples reference forwarding syslog to a Linux device with the agent installed. However, there are some instances of Windows bias: the Oracle Database Audit section references 'Event Viewer' (a Windows tool) alongside syslog, and the Ivanti Unified Endpoint Management section links to Windows-specific instructions. Additionally, the documentation does not provide explicit Linux configuration examples (e.g., syslog-ng, rsyslog, or journald setup) for the agent host itself, nor does it mention Windows equivalents or clarify cross-platform agent installation. The ordering in Oracle Database Audit places 'Event Viewer' after syslog, but its inclusion may confuse Linux-focused users.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit Linux syslog configuration examples (e.g., rsyslog, syslog-ng) for agent hosts, including sample config snippets.
- Clarify agent installation steps for both Linux and Windows hosts, if supported, and provide parity in example coverage.
- For appliances or software that support both Windows and Linux log forwarding, mention both options and provide links/examples for each.
- Where Windows tools (e.g., Event Viewer) are referenced, clarify their relevance and provide Linux equivalents or alternatives.
- Review and update links that point to Windows-only documentation (e.g., Ivanti) to include Linux instructions if available.
