I felt the same, initially. But Amani's explanation confused me a bit, since
the value for URL was, http://127.0.0.1/logs. That endpoint clearly has more
than the host name in it. So, I'm still in doubt.

Anyway in general, I'm +1 for using Host + Port instead of URL, since syslog
is something that's not directly bound to HTTP or something, AFAIK (correct
me if I'm wrong).

Thanks,
Senaka.
