# Testing
1. Create a working directory and pull in this PR
```
mkdir ~/metron-1261
git clone https://github.com/apache/metron ~/metron-1261/metron
cd ~/metron-1261/metron
git remote add jonzeolla https://github.com/jonzeolla/metron
git pull jonzeolla METRON-1261
```
1. Modify
[this](https://github.com/JonZeolla/metron/blob/METRON-1261/metron-deployment/vagrant/full-dev-platform/Vagrantfile#L20)
to remove `sensors,` (to spin up the real sensors).
```
sed -i '' "s/ansibleSkipTags=.*/ansibleSkipTags=\'quick_dev\'/"
metron-deployment/vagrant/full-dev-platform/Vagrantfile
```
1. Set up the environment in full-dev.
```
vagrant ssh
sudo su -
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bro/bin
service monit stop && service sensor-stubs stop bro && broctl stop
yum -y install jq wireshark
```
1. Configure kafka in local.bro so all of the currently supported bro logs
are being sent.
```
sed -i 's/redef Kafka::logs_to_send = .*/redef Kafka::logs_to_send =
set(HTTP::LOG, DNS::LOG, Conn::LOG, DPD::LOG, DHCP::LOG, FTP::LOG, SSH::LOG,
SSL::LOG, SMTP::LOG, RADIUS::LOG, Weird::LOG, Files::LOG, Notice::LOG,
Software::LOG, Known::CERTS_LOG, Known::DEVICES_LOG, X509::LOG);/'
/usr/local/bro/share/bro/site/local.bro
echo "redef Kafka::debug = \"all\";" >>
/usr/local/bro/share/bro/site/local.bro
echo "redef Known::cert_tracking = ALL_HOSTS;" >>
/usr/local/bro/share/bro/site/local.bro
echo "redef Software::asset_tracking = ALL_HOSTS;" >>
/usr/local/bro/share/bro/site/local.bro
sed -i '86 a @load
policy/protocols/dhcp/known-devices-and-hostnames.bro'
/usr/local/bro/share/bro/site/local.bro
```
1. Monitor the bro kafka topic
```
# Open a new terminal
cd ~/metron-508/metron/metron-deployment/vagrant/full-dev-platform
vagrant ssh
sudo su -
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bro/bin:/usr/hdp/current/kafka-broker/bin
kafka-console-consumer.sh --zookeeper localhost:2181 --topic bro
```
1. Monitor the storm logs.
```
# Open a new terminal
cd ~/metron-508/metron/metron-deployment/vagrant/full-dev-platform
vagrant ssh
sudo su -
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bro/bin:/usr/hdp/current/kafka-broker/bin
# Look at the storm logs (The "failed to parse" errors for ip_src_addr
and ip_dst_addr are expected, and should be addressed as a part of METRON-939)
tail -f /var/log/storm/workers-artifacts/indexing-*/*/worker.log | grep
-i "org.elasticsearch.index.mapper.MapperParsingException: failed to parse"
# You may want to evaluate worker.log for other errors, but the prior
command is helpful to cut through some of the failed indexing of IPv6 addresses
```
1. Run bro against some public pcaps.
```
# In the first of your three terminals
# These are kept separate so that the flat file log output won't stomp
the prior ones, for ingest validation
mkdir -p ~/brotmp/nitroba ~/brotmp/example-traffic ~/brotmp/ssh
~/brotmp/ftp ~/brotmp/radius
wget https://www.bro.org/static/traces/exercise-traffic.pcap -O
~/brotmp/example-traffic/exercise-traffic.pcap

```
1. Validate that terminals 2 and 3 don't have any errors that you don't
expect.
1. Verify proper indexing in ES and availability in kibana.
```
# Check around and make sure things look okay
declare -a exists notexists; for protocol in http dns conn dpd dhcp ftp
ssh ssl smtp radius weird files notice software known_certs x509 known_devices;
do if [[ $(curl -s -XGET "node1:9200/bro*/_search?q=protocol:${protocol}" | jq
'.hits.hits') == '[]' ]]; then notexists+=" ${protocol}"; else exists+="
${protocol}"; fi; done; if [ ${#notexists[@]} -ne 0 ]; then echo -e
"\n\n\033[0mThe following do exist in ES: ${exists[@]}\n\033[0;31mThe following
do NOT exist in ES: ${notexists[@]}\033[0m"; else echo 'All of the log types
are in ES! Success!'; fi; unset exists notexists
# Check Kibana. For example:
http://node1:5000/app/kibana#/visualize/create?_g=(refreshInterval:(display:Off,pause:!f,value:0),time:(from:now-15y,mode:quick,to:now))&_a=(filters:!(),linked:!f,query:(query_string:(analyze_wildcard:!t,query:'*')),uiState:(),vis:(aggs:!((id:'3',params:(field:protocol,orderBy:'2',size:20),schema:segment,type:terms),(id:'2',schema:metric,type:count)),type:histogram))&indexPattern=bro*&type=histogram
# OPTIONAL testing
# Run `/usr/share/elasticsearch/bin/plugin install
mobz/elasticsearch-head` and look around
curl -XGET node1:9200/_cat/indices # First column should be all green
curl -XGET "node1:9200/bro*/_count" # Check the count of entries in the
bro index, you can re-run bro against specific PCAPs and watch this increase,
etc.
