We are trying to set up Splunk, on a GNU server, running with rsyslog. Splunk doesn't see the data, and I'm reasonably sure it is because we are not set up correctly with the rsyslog daemon. I can't find a file anywhere that has the data from the switch.
I set up the switch with a VLAN1 ip of 10.10.10.1, with a default-gateway of 10.10.10.20, which is the IP address of the GNU server. I have both logging and traps set to send to 10.10.10.20, and I'm logging to the buffer at level 6. The switch can ping the server, and vice versa; there is no firewall or other devices.
What do I need to do to the rsyslog.conf file? and do I need to create a logging subdirectory?
Please explain in detail, that would make things more helpful.
Thanks.
