Likely just a lack of knowledge of that ecosystem on my behalf, but are
there clients other than the forwarder that would talk this protocol? If so,
leaving it optional is certainly fine.
My question came from the perspective of the forwarder conf, specifically
the following not being optional:
https://github.com/elastic/logstash-forwarder/blob/master/logstash-forwarder.conf.example#L16
In this case, it seems that the forwarder does not support plaintext
transport requiring, at minimum, a cert for the listener when the client
connects. However, as discussed prior, we are only providing two way auth for
the current implementation until the next iteration with Lumberjack v2.
Let me know if this makes sense, or if I've just provided a lot of words
