## Entry size causing syslog audit device errors

I think it would be good if this section's name was more specific, since it's visible on the navbar on the right.


If the items written to the syslog audit device are larger than the syslog host's configured maximum socket
send buffer, then Vault will log an error such as this example:

```
[ERROR] audit: backend failed to log response: backend=syslog/ error=write unixgram ->/var/run/log: write: message too long
[ERROR] core: failed to audit response: request_path=pki/certs/ error=1 error occurred:
* no audit backend succeeded in logging the response
```

To remediate this, consult the [Linux Programmer's Manual manual page for socket(7)] (https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/socket.7.html) to
increase socket send buffer size.
