Configuring syslog output¶
Wazuh may be configured to send alerts to syslog as follows:
Configuration¶
Syslog output is configured in the ossec.conf
file. All of the available options are detailed in Syslog output.
<ossec_config>
<syslog_output>
<level>9</level>
<server>192.168.1.241</server>
</syslog_output>
<syslog_output>
<server>192.168.1.240</server>
</syslog_output>
</ossec_config>
The above configuration will send alerts to 192.168.1.240
and, if the alert level is higher than 9, also to 192.168.1.241
.
To apply the changes, restart Wazuh:
For Systemd:
# systemctl restart wazuh-manager
For SysV Init:
# service wazuh-manager restart
