To set up the log target programmatically use code like this:
NOTE: If your receiver application is ever likely to be off-line, don't use TCP protocol or you'll get TCP timeouts and your application will crawl. Either switch to UDP transport or use AsyncWrapper target so that your application threads will not be blocked by the timing-out connection attempts.

To print the results, use any application that's able to receive messages over TCP or UDP. NetCat is a simple but very powerful command-line tool that can be used for that. This image demonstrates the NetCat tool receiving log messages from Network target.
NOTE: If your receiver application is ever likely to be off-line, don't use TCP protocol or you'll get TCP timeouts and your application will be very slow. Either switch to UDP transport or use AsyncWrapper target so that your application threads will not be blocked by the timing-out connection attempts.
There are two specialized versions of the Network target: Chainsaw and NLogViewer which write to instances of Chainsaw log4j viewer or NLogViewer application respectively.

The example web service that works with this example is shown below
Asynchronous target wrapper allows the logger code to execute more quickly, by queueing messages and processing them in a separate thread. You should wrap targets that spend a non-trivial amount of time in their Write() method with asynchronous target to speed up logging.
Because asynchronous logging is quite a common scenario, NLog supports a shorthand notation for wrapping all targets with AsyncWrapper. Just add async="true" to the <targets/> element in the configuration file.

This example works like this. If there are no Warn,Error or Fatal messages in the buffer only Info messages are written to the file, but if there are any warnings or errors, the output includes detailed trace (levels >= Debug). You can plug in a different type of buffering wrapper (such as ASPNetBufferingWrapper) to achieve different functionality.
