* port: the port, where the remote syslog instance is listening

* facility: Syslog log facility
* severity: Syslog log severity
* use_record: Use severity and facility from record if available
* payload_key: Use the field specified in payload_key from record to set payload
* max_size: the max size of message to send defaults to 4096
