I'd like to Syslog with my Openobserve in kubernetes. I've installed using the Helm chart. Which service should I modify to add the Syslog port? Ingester or should it go through the router?

Syslog does not work in the distributed mode. I would rather have you send syslog logs to otel-collector or vector and use them to forward logs to OpenObserve.

Filed a github issue to get that added to the docs too, if I have some time later today I'll do a quick PR https://github.com/openobserve/openobserve/issues/1629
