Configuring a Log Source

You can configure a log source manually for Apache HTTP Server events in JSA.

JSA automatically discovers and creates a log source for syslog-ng events from Apache HTTP Server. However, you can manually create a log source for JSA to receive syslog events. These configuration steps are optional.

1. Log in to JSA.
2. Click the Admin tab.
3. On the navigation menu, click Data Sources.
4. Click the Log Sources icon.
5. Click Add.
6. In the Log Source Name field, type a name for your log source.
7. In the Log Source Description field, type a description for the log source.
8. From the Log Source Type list, select Apache HTTP Server.
9. Using the Protocol Configuration list, select Syslog.
10. Configure the following values:

    Table 1: Syslog Parameters

    Parameter	Description
    Log Source Identifier	Type the IP address or host name for the log source as an identifier for events from your Apache installations.

11. Click Save.
12. On the Admin tab, click Deploy Changes.

    The configuration is complete. For more information about Apache, see http://www.apache.org/.
