Thanks Bazi.

 

I would like to analyze little more on syslog-ng log files related to TLS. Could you please let me know how to enable debug logs in syslog-ng.

 

I have one more query on ssl option.

There is a  TLS options in 3.7.2 ,  ssl-options()  which is used for setting ssl option.  Options are no-sslv2, no-sslv3, no-tlsv1, no-tlsv11, no-tlsv12 and by default option is no-sslv2. Hope my understanding is correct. I referred the following link

https://www.balabit.com/sites/default/files/documents/syslog-ng-ose-latest-guides/en/syslog-ng-ose-guide-admin/html/tlsoptions.html

 

Could you please let me know how to set ssl-option in syslog-ng 3.6. I didn’t find similar option there.  Currently my syslog-ng server is 3.6.2 and client is 3.7.2

 

Regards,

Girish

Well, if you open the payload of the initial packages (e.g. after the SYN-SYNACK-ACK handshake), you should see binary stuff instead of plain text log messages.

Hi  All,

Finally I was able to setup syslog-ng client and server. Communicate over TLS. Thanks for all your help.

In wireshark capture  I am seeing all protocol as TCP and not as TLS.  Please let me know whether my communication has happened over TLS.

If yes how do I validate that. Can I  enable additional logs  in  syslog-ng ?

 

 

My tls part of conf file

 

Client

--------

destination d_destination {

    syslog("135.254.163.151" port(6514)

                        transport("tls")

        tls( ca_dir("/etc/ca.d")

         key_file("/etc/cert.d/myCliPrivate.key")

         cert_file("/etc/cert.d/myCliCert.pem") )

    );

};

 

 

Server

---------

source d_source {

          syslog(ip("135.254.163.151") port(6514)

                    transport("tls")

             tls( key_file("/etc/syslog-ng/cert.d/mySerPrivate.key")

             cert_file("/etc/syslog-ng/cert.d/mySerCert.pem")

             ca_dir("/etc/syslog-ng/ca.d"))

    );

};

Girish
