UFM Events Fluent Streaming (EFS) Plugin

EFS plugin is a self-contained Docker container with REST API support managed by UFM. EFS plugin extracts the UFM events from UFM Syslog and streams them to a remote FluentD destination. It also has the option to duplicate current UFM Syslog messages and forward them to a remote Syslog destination. As a fabric manager, it will be useful to collect the UFM Enterprise events/logs, stream them to the destination endpoint and monitor them.

The following are the ways EFS plugin can be deployed:

1. On UFM Appliance

2. On UFM Software

For detailed instructions on how to deploy EFS plugin, refer to UFM Event Stream to FluentBit endpoint (EFS).
