+### Port and SELinux
+
+SELinux is only configured to allow sending and receiving on the following ports by default:
+```
+syslogd_port_t tcp 514, 20514
+syslogd_port_t udp 514, 20514
+```
+If other ports need to be configured, you can use [linux-system-roles/selinux](https://github.com/linux-system-roles/selinux) to manage SELinux contexts.
