https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/general-topics/best-free-syslog-server-2026/m-p/1259362#M126760 <P>Hi everyone, we are currently trying to set up a syslog server as we would want to retain older logs in case we need it for auditing purposes. We are looking for a free one that's good in 2026. I'm currently choosing between an ELK stack and Wazuh, which would be easier? I have experience in setting up Docker containers.</P> <P>Was looking at Graylogs as well but it looks like the PanOS 11 extension is behind a paywall. We have a Grafana stack set up as well but using Loki seems to be harder to look for specific traffic logs for source users.</P> Sun, 19 Jul 2026 23:50:57 GMT R.Perez481389 2026-07-19T23:50:57Z https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/general-topics/best-free-syslog-server-2026/m-p/1259362#M126760 <P>Hi everyone, we are currently trying to set up a syslog server as we would want to retain older logs in case we need it for auditing purposes.
