Installing a correlator in a KUMA network infrastructure

A correlator 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 processing events. The second part of the correlator is installed in the network infrastructure.

To install a correlator:

  1. Log in to the server where you want to install the service.
  2. Create the /opt/kaspersky/kuma/ folder.
  3. Copy the "kuma" file to the /opt/kaspersky/kuma/ folder. The file is located in the installer in the /kuma-ansible-installer/roles/kuma/files/ folder.

    Make sure the kuma file has sufficient rights to run.

  4. Execute the following command:

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

    You can copy the correlator 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 correlator to be installed, and the port that the correlator 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 correlator is installed. You can use it to analyze events for threats.
