SocketNode

public class SocketNode extends Object implements Runnable
Read {@link LoggingEvent} objects sent from a remote client using Sockets (TCP). These logging events are logged according to local policy, as if they were generated locally.

For example, the socket node might decide to log events to a local file and also resent them to a second socket node.
