Does systemd have a network protocol like syslog, i.e. is there a native way to send logs for a particular unit/service to a remote machine?

Everything I find just says to install syslog, which surprises me.

Would native actually be your preference, though? Or would you really prefer tools that spoke existing protocols like RELP?

native would be my preference as I'd rather avoid installing any software at all. Protocol will be HTTPS, format will be https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/json/
