VLC issue:

[Anonymous]

HI All

I have configure the VLC and integrated with SA successfully .During testing i have configured the windows box to send the logs to VLC and configure Pull mechanism in Log collector but getting error in logs of log collector

..error 2014-03-13T12.12.07Z Shovel failed to connect to Host: "10.58.1x.7x" Port: 5671 VirtualHost: <<"logcollection">>: error:{badmatch,

I have opened source vlc  to destination Log collector 50101 port and source Log collector ,SA  destination VLC and port 50101..

Please let us know in case of any suggestion on this

so 10.58.1x.7x is your VLC?  check the port 5671 (5671 ) from log collector to the VLC.

Hi Pat ..I was also suspecting the same issue .But this port information not mentioned in any document.Do you have the documnet which states that what ports are needs to be open ..we have just open 50101 from VLC to Logcollector and Log collector to vlc...

I cannot find in the SAdocs, however I have one document which states the requirements:

5671

AMQPS

(TCP)

LC VLC bidirectional

This port is used for AMQPS traffic

between a VLC and LC. Connections

are made from the VLC to the LC.

5671

AMQPS

(TCP)

VLC LC bidirectional

This port is used for AMQPS traffic

between a VLC and LC. Connections

are made from the LC to the VLC.

You may open a support case.

Thanks.

can you configured the vlc to local lc? from local lc to log decoder using syslog, you can monitor the network traffic.

also check the logs.
