Installing a collector in a KUMA network infrastructure

A collector consists of two parts: one part is created inside the KUMA web interface, and the other part is installed on the network infrastructure server intended for receiving events. The second part of the collector is installed in the network infrastructure.

To install a collector:

1. Log in to the server on which you would like to install the service as the root user.
2. Execute the following command:

   /opt/kaspersky/kuma/kuma collector --core https://<KUMA Core server FQDN>:<port used by KUMA Core server for internal communication (port 7210 by default)> --id <service ID copied from the KUMA web interface> --api.port <port used for communication with the installed component> --install

   Example: /opt/kaspersky/kuma/kuma collector --core https://kuma.example.com:7210 --id XXXX --api.port YYYY --install

   You can copy the collector installation command at the last step of the Installation Wizard. It automatically specifies the address and port of the KUMA Core server, the identifier of the collector to be installed, and the port that the collector uses for communication. Before installation, ensure the network connectivity of KUMA components.

   When deploying several KUMA services on the same host, during the installation process you must specify unique ports for each component using the --api.port <port> parameter. The following setting values are used by default: --api.port 7221.

The collector is installed. You can use it to receive data from an event source and forward it for processing.
