great initiative Sina, I did leave a comment on the PR, about configurability. in short two worries: 1. an operator uses a different log host than the MS (i.e an ip/hostname config) 2. an operator wants to not use the feature (i.e. a boolean flag) I'm not sure how much this would require, but it seems minimal. Of course, not opening the port is blocking the feature as well.
