Log Types: GenericLog

Overview

The GenericLog LogType is the ultimate fallback for any logs that are not specifically recognised by the Snare Central server collection subsystem.

Collection

Data that is stored in the GenericLog table, may arrive from a range of possible log sources - Syslog, Snare collectors on ports 6161, or 6163, batch uploads, SNMPTraps, etc.
