+Syslog support
+--------------
+Upstream recommends using syslog over UDP to log from HAProxy processes, as
+this allows seamless logging from chroot'ed processes without access to
+/dev/log. However, many syslog implementations do not enable UDP syslog by
+default.
+
+The default HAProxy configuration in Debian uses /dev/log for logging and
+ships an rsyslog snippet that creates /dev/log in HAProxy's chroot and logs all
+HAProxy messages to /var/log/haproxy.log. To take advantage of this, you must
+restart rsyslog after installing this package. For other syslog daemons you
+will have to take manual measures to enable UDP logging or create /dev/log
+under HAProxy's chroot:
+a. For sysklogd, add SYSLOG="-a /var/lib/haproxy/dev/log" to
+   /etc/default/syslog.
+b. For inetutils-syslogd, add SYSLOGD_OPTS="-a /var/lib/haproxy/dev/log" to
+   /etc/default/inetutils-syslogd.
+
+Prometheus exporter
+-------------------
+HAProxy is shipped with a builtin Prometheus exporter. To enable it,
+you need to configure the Prometheus endpoint:
+
+    frontend stats
+        bind *:8404
+        http-request use-service prometheus-exporter if { path /metrics }
+        stats enable
+        stats uri /stats
+        stats refresh 10s
