## Usage

Our default configuration will collect filesystem logs placed by `rsyslog`. Therefor our example playbook makes sure, `rsyslog` is installed. If you don't want that, please change the configuration of the `beats` module. Without syslog you won't receive any messages with the default configuration.

There are some comments in the Playbook. Either fill them with the correct values (`remote_user`) or consider them as a hint to commonly used options.
