Setup Instructions

⚠️ Note: These instructions were automatically generated from the connector's user interface definition file using AI and may not be fully accurate. Please verify all configuration steps in the Microsoft Sentinel portal.

NOTE: This data connector depends on a parser based on a Kusto Function to work as expected which is deployed as part of the solution. To view the function code in Log Analytics, open Log Analytics/Microsoft Sentinel Logs blade, click Functions and search for the alias Infoblox and load the function code or click here, on the second line of the query, enter any unique identifiers for the logstream. The function usually takes 10-15 minutes to activate after solution installation/update.

1. Install and onboard the agent for Linux

Typically, you should install the agent on a different computer from the one on which the logs are generated.

Syslog logs are collected only from Linux agents. Choose where to install the agent:

Install agent on Azure Linux Virtual Machine

Select the machine to install the agent on and then click Connect.

Install agent on a non-Azure Linux Machine

Download the agent on the relevant machine and follow the instructions.

2. Configure the logs to be collected

Configure the facilities you want to collect and their severities.

  1. Under workspace advanced settings Configuration, select Data and then Syslog.
  2. Select Apply below configuration to my machines and select the facilities and severities.
  3. Click Save.

3. Configure and connect the Infoblox NIOS

Follow these instructions to enable syslog forwarding of Infoblox NIOS Logs. Use the IP address or hostname for the Linux device with the Linux agent installed as the Destination IP address.

4. Configure the Sentinel parser

Update the watchlist 'Sources_by_Source' with the hostname(s) of your Infoblox device(s). Set SourceType to 'InfobloxNIOS' and Source to the value of 'Computer' seen in the logs seen in Syslog table.
