HAPROXY: Version 2.3.x supports Syslog Protocol (UDP/TCP)

[erwindwight]

We have a use case to migrate our central Syslog servers to be behind haproxy, and we need TCP and UDP backend, so haproxy version 2.3 will help us with our use case.

These results were generated with Rangefinder, a tool that helps predict the downstream impact of breaking changes to elements used in Puppet modules. You can run this on the command line to get a full report.

Exact matches are those that we can positively identify via namespace and the declaring modules' metadata. Non-namespaced items, such as Puppet 3.x functions, will always be reported as near matches only.

Hi @anthonysomerset
Thank you for taking the time to check this out.
We have had this working internally in our organization for some time.

This is pending proper unit testing, this is in my task list, but I can't find time to work on this.
Feel free to help on this part, and I would love to see this merge.
