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:

# systemctl restart wazuh-manager
