Hi,
We have SecurityOnion (using Suricata) and PacketFence working well on our
network. I'm currently trying to send the alerts from the Security Onion
server to the PacketFence server. I've followed the instructions within the
Administration Guide (Chapter 13 - We're using PF version 5.7) But I can't seem
to get the alerts to be shown in PacketFence. Does anyone have any ideas where
I can start trying to solve this issue? I've changed the syslog-ng.conf on the
SecurityOnion server to log to a file to prove it works (Every alert shows in
the file) but when I set it to send to the PacketFence server nothing appears
to happen. There seems to be an outgoing connection from the Security Onion
server to our PacketFence server;
Output of netstat -peanut;
udp 0 0 127.0.0.1:52444 127.0.0.1:514 ESTABLISHED
989 20594 1641/ossec-csyslogd
udp 0 0 192.168.XXX.231:57654 192.168.XXX.232:514 ESTABLISHED
0 13027154 8498/syslog-ng
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:514 0.0.0.0:*
0 13027150 8498/syslog-ng
But I don't seem to get an equivalent connection on the PacketFence server side;
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:514 0.0.0.0:*
0 699304 3167/rsyslogd
So I assume the port is just listening.
I've checked that on the PacketFence server I've modified the rsyslog.conf, and
created the securityonion_ids.conf, and made sure the alerting pipe exists.
Also configured a new syslog parser through the GUI and created alerts (In this
case to alert on any P2P traffic, which Security Onion shows that we have
approx. 150 incidents a day)
Does anyone have any pointers where I can start digging to solve this?
Many thanks
