I need to gather log messages from the Windows Event Log from various machines.

I have read https://www.netxms.org/documentation/adminguide/common-tasks.html and https://wiki.netxms.org/wiki/UM:Log_Monitoring but found very little information on how to do this.

What is required for this?  Do I need to configure the agent?

Hi,

Netxms only can accept syslog udp message.

u need to convert windows event become a syslog message.

In my case I use nxlog agent to do the job. nxlog is great agent to convert many things regarding with any kind of log messages/files.
