ID 254394

To configure the export of KWTS events to KUMA:

  1. Connect to the KWTS server over SSH as root.
  2. Before making changes, create backup copies of the following files:
    • /opt/kaspersky/kwts/share/templates/core_settings/event_logger.json.template
    • /etc/rsyslog.conf
  3. Make sure that the settings in the /opt/kaspersky/kwts/share/templates/core_settings/event_logger.json.template configuration file have the following values, and make changes if necessary:

    "siemSettings":

    {

    "enabled": true,

    "facility": "Local5",

    "logLevel": "Info",

    "formatting":

    {

  4. Save your changes.
  5. To send events via UDP, make the following changes to the /etc/rsyslog.conf configuration file:

    $WorkDirectory /var/lib/rsyslog

    $ActionQueueFileName ForwardToSIEM

    $ActionQueueMaxDiskSpace 1g

    $ActionQueueSaveOnShutdown on

    $ActionQueueType LinkedList

    $ActionResumeRetryCount -1

    local5.* @<<IP address of the KUMA collector>:<port of the collector>>

    If you want to send events over TCP, the last line should be as follows:

    local5.* @@<<IP address of the KUMA collector>:<port of the collector>>

  6. Save your changes.
  7. Restart the rsyslog service with the following command:

    sudo systemctl restart rsyslog.service

  8. Go to the KWTS web interface, to the SettingsSyslog tab and enable the Log information about traffic profile option.
  9. Click Save.
