Sumo Logic destinations: sumologic-http() and sumologic-syslog()

From version 3.27.1, the syslog-ng Open Source Edition (syslog-ng OSE) application can send log messages to Sumo Logic, a cloud-based log management and security analytics service, by using the sumologic-http() and sumologic-syslog() destinations.

Prerequisites

Currently, using the sumologic-http() and sumologic-syslog() destinations with syslog-ng OSE has the following prerequisites:

  • A Sumo Logic account.

    If you do not yet have a Sumo Logic account, visit the official Sumo Logic website, and click Start free trial to create an account.

    NOTE: A free trial version of the Sumo Logic account has limited functionalities and is only available for 90 days.

  • A Cloud Syslog Source configured with your Sumo Logic account.

    For details, follow the configuration instructions under the Configure a Cloud Syslog Source section on the official Sumo Logic website.

    NOTE: Transport-level security (TLS) 1.2 over TCP is required.

  • A Cloud Syslog Source Token (from the Cloud Syslog Source side).

  • TLS set up on your Sumo Logic account.

    For detailed information about setting up TLS in your Sumo Logic account, see the description for setting up TLS on the Sumo Logic official website.

    NOTE: After you download the DigiCert certificate, make sure you follow the certificate setup steps under the syslog-ng section.

  • Your Sumo Logic syslog client, configured to send data to the Sumo Logic cloud syslog service, by using syslog-ng OSE.

    For detailed information, follow the instructions under the Send data to cloud syslog source with syslog-ng section on the official Sumo Logic website.

  • A verified connection and client configuration with the Sumo Logic service.

    		 Caution:

    To avoid potential data loss, One Identity strongly recommends that you verify your connection and client configuration with the Sumo Logic service before you start using the sumologic-http() or sumologic-syslog() destination with syslog-ng OSE in a production environment.

  • (Optional) For using the sumologic-http() destination, you need a HTTP Hosted Collector configured in the Sumo Logic service.

    To configure a Hosted Collector, follow the configuration instructions under the Configure a Hosted Collector section on the official Sumo Logic website.

  • (Optional) For using the sumologic-http() destination, you need the unique HTTP collector code you receive while configuring your Host Collector for HTTP requests.

Limitations

Currently, using the sumologic-syslog() and sumologic-http() destinations with syslog-ng OSE has the following limitations:

  • The minimum required version of syslog-ng OSE is version 3.27.1.

  • Message format must be in RFC 5424-compliant form. Messages over 64KB in length are truncated.

    For more information about the message format limitations, see the Message format section on the official Sumo Logic website.

  • 64 characters long Sumo Logic tokens must be passed in the message body.

    NOTE: Although RFC 5424 limits the structured data field (SD-ID) to 32 characters, Sumo Logic tokens are 64 characters long. If your logging client enforces the 32 characters length limit, you must pass the token in the message body.

Declaration for the sumologic-http() destination
destination d_sumo_http {
  sumologic-http(
    collector("ZaVnC4dhaV3_[...]UF2D8DRSnHiGKoq9Onvz-XT7RJG2FA6RuyE5z4A==")
    deployment("eu")
    tls(peer-verify(yes) ca-dir('/etc/syslog-ng/ca.d'))
  );
};
Declaration for the sumologic-syslog() destination
destination d_sumo_syslog {
  sumologic-syslog(
    token("rqf/bdxYVaBLFMoU39[...]CCC5jwETm@41123")
    deployment("eu")
    tls(peer-verify(yes) ca-dir('/etc/syslog-ng/ca.d'))
  );
};
Using the sumologic() driver

To use the sumologic() driver, the scl.conf file must be included in your syslog-ng OSE configuration:

@include "scl.conf"

NOTE: The sumologic() driver is actually a reusable configuration snippet configured to send log messages using the network() and http() destination by using a template. For details on using or writing such configuration snippets, see Reusing configuration blocks. You can find the source of this configuration snippet on GitHub.

sumologic-http()

The sumologic-http() and sumologic-syslog() destinations send log messages to Sumo Logic, a cloud-based log management and security analytics service.

Using the sumologic-http() destination, you can send data to the Sumo Logic service by utilizing a Hosted Collector hosted by Sumo Logic.

For more information about the sumologic-http() destination, see sumologic-syslog() .

Sending data using the sumologic-http() destination
Example: Using the sumologic-http() destination

The following example sends every log from the system() source to your Sumo Logic account.

log {
  source { system(); };

  destination {
    sumologic-http(
      collector("UNIQUE-HTTP-COLLECTOR-CODE-AS-PROVIDED-BY-sumologic")
      deployment("ENDPOINT")
      tls(peer-verify(yes) ca-dir('/etc/syslog-ng/ca.d'))
    );
  };
};

sumologic-syslog()

The sumologic-http() and sumologic-syslog() destinations send log messages to Sumo Logic, a cloud-based log management and security analytics service.

Using the sumologic-syslog() destination, you can send data (both in JSON and in non-JSON format) to the Sumo Logic service.

For more information about the sumologic-http() destination, see sumologic-http() .

Sending data using the sumologic-syslog() destination
Example: Sending data using the sumologic-syslog() destination

The following example illustrates how you can use the sumologic-syslog() destination to send data to your Sumo Logic account.

log {
  source { system(); };

  destination{
    sumologic-syslog(token("USER-TOKEN-AS-PROVIDED-BY-sumologic")
      deployment("ENDPOINT")
      tls(peer-verify(required-trusted) ca-dir('/etc/syslog-ng/ca.d'))
    );
};
};
Sending JSON data using the sumologic-syslog destination
Example: Sending data using the sumologic-syslog() destination

The following example illustrates how you can use the sumologic-syslog() destination to send JSON data to your Sumo Logic account.

log {
  source{ system(); };

  destination{
    sumologic-syslog(token("USER-TOKEN-AS-PROVIDED-BY-sumologic")
      deployment("ENDPOINT")
      tls(peer-verify(required-trusted) ca-dir('/etc/syslog-ng/ca.d'))
      template("$(format-json --scope all-nv-pairs)")
    );
  };
};

sumologic-http() and sumologic-syslog() destination options

The sumologic-http() and sumologic-syslog() destinations have the following options.
