Hi All,

I am trying to send log messages on one of my application using logstash to Graylog server.  
I Found that we can use gelf output in order to send messages to Graylog server over UPD protocol.

I want to send plain logs from any server to graylog server, using any other logstash output other than Gelf output.

Please suggest best way to send log messages from logstash to Graylog server.

Thanks in Advance.
