Log Sinks Configuration
The adapter supports the file sink, the standard I/O sink, the network sink and the hawk sink. Each sink has its own configuration options.
When you select a log sink from the All Log Sinks panel, the configuration options for the sink are displayed in the Configuration panel on the right. The log sink you select determines the options you have to configure.
