Lab 2.2: Syslog Organization on log01

Summary:

During this lab we setup mgtm01 and setup the fw to allow connection to the 172.16.150.0/24 network. Then setup chrome remote desktop on mgmt01, ssh key authnetication from mgmt01 to log01. Then setup authpriv messages for rsyslog from web01 and vyos.

Server

Client:

Edit the rsyslog.d/ config

  • Add this line (IP is log machine)

Restart rsyslog.service

Forward Authentication events from vyos:

Notes and Difficulties:

SE linux got me once again... I had scp'd to the user home dir the 03-sec250.conf file to log1 and then mv'd it to /etc/rsyslog.d/. This made it so the file had kept the user_home_t tag seen below

Fix:

This will make a new file and remove the user_home_t tag and allow SE linux to use the config file.

VYOS Config:
