improvements for syslog. Now, when TLS/SSL is configured, the user has

default.

The RELP protocol has been upgraded to the newest version and now also
supports TLS/SSL.

The LogNorm Action has been hardened and supports / processes  Array types now

The property replacer has also been enhanced: it now supports the new
“cef” option to convert properties into a valid McAffee CEF FORMAT
string.
