RE: [graylog2] Need assistance on building an alert.

2016-08-19 Thread Tom Vile
Here I am over thinking the issue. I will talk with the networking guys to go 
that route as it makes sense and keeps the processing down on my server. We use 
Cisco gear and have worked on them before and have done something similar in 
the past. I guess since I don't control the networking equipment it didn't 
cross my mind.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Tom,
I didn’t see where you specified the firewall/routers but I have an ACL in our 
Cisco router that checks outbound traffic and if any traffic matches an ACL 
rule it is set to log.
This router logging is sent to our Graylog2 collector via syslog messages to 
the specified IP/port combination.
The syslog entries coming from the firewall has all the information needed for 
decent logging.
Based on these syslog messages, you can create your alerts on the 
router/firewall inputs.

Subject: [graylog2] Need assistance on building an alert.

I have been tasked with building out a Graylog2 cluster solution at my company 
and it has been going very well but need some help with the best way to handle 
a rather complex alert.

We have roughly1500 Windows computers with 4 at roughly 400 locations on their 
own private networks. They are locked down so that they can only communicate 
with specific IP addresses
listed in a firewall that is at each location. All the firewalls are of the 
same make and model if that helps. I do not need assistance with communication 
to each location as that is already working.

What I want to do is create an alert so that if one of the computers attempts 
to communicate outside of the approved IP network I get an alert.

--
Example:

Location has an IP network of 192.168.1.0
PC attempts to communicate with an IP address outside of the IP range of 
192.168.1.1-10
If the PC attempts to connect to an IP of say 172.17.1.1 or any other not 
approved I receive an alert.
--

Generally this is not an issue but security is a top priority and there have 
been times where a tech plugs in something where he/she shouldn't or an 
employee does the same.
I have been successful in setting up quite a few alerts and they work great but 
I want to make certain I do this in the best possible way without it being too 
complex if possible.

What would be the best way of handling a condition like this?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions,

Tom
