Configuring the Default Agent

The CA User Activity Reporting Module installation creates a default agent on the CA User Activity Reporting Module server that has two connectors ready for use, a syslog_Connector and a Linux_local Connector. The syslog connector is available for collection of syslog events sent to the CA User Activity Reporting Module server. The Linux_local connector is available for collection of OS-level events from the CA User Activity Reporting Module physical server, or from a syslog file.

In the basic two-server environment, configure one or more syslog connectors on the collection server to receive events.

The process for using the default agent includes the following steps:

  1. (optional) Review the syslog integrations and listeners.
  2. Create a syslog connector.
  3. Verify that the CA User Activity Reporting Module server is receiving syslog events.
