Syslog
FortiSIEM handles SourceFire alerts via syslog either from IPS appliances themselves or from DefenseCenter. Events are classified as Snort event types.
Simply configure SourceFire appliances or DefenseCenter to send syslog to FortiSIEM as directed in the device's product documentation, and FortiSIEM will parse the contents.
- For Syslog Server, or the server where the syslog should be sent, enter the IP address of your FortiSIEM virtual appliance.
- For Port, enter 514.
- Make sure that the syslog type is Common Event Format (CEF). The syslog format should be the same as that shown in the example.
