PICO Connector is used to receive logs from one or multiple PICO at a remote location. The PICO Connector is configured and running by default on port 7426 TCP when the Adapter is onboarded into the DNIF tenants (previously known as cluster).
PICO legacy Connector is used to maintain backward compatibility with PICO v6.
Pre-requisites
