we configure the Xpolog cluster to be able to connect to the agent using a special account (address book pane)
We configure the agent to be able to establish connections with sources and read logs when necessary.
when the XPLG cluster requires the collection and updating of a log, (define In the connection policy ) the cluster will request the agent to perform this update. The agent, on behalf of the cluster, will establish contact with the source and transmit the data to the cluster. note: The agent doesn't save any log data; instead, it just verify that this log contains fresh information and send it over to the xpolog Cluster.
