Collect Server Log Data and Network Traffic

This article describes how to collect server log data and network traffic in a Cybereason On-Prem environment.

Important

You must collect this data before rebooting the Detection/WebApp server. If you reboot the Detection server before collecting the data, the data will be lost.

It is recommended to collect this information before contacting Cybereason Technical Support.

Step 1: Collect server log data and network traffic

To collect server log data and network traffic:

  1. Connect to the Server configuration Management and open SSH to Detection/WebApp server.

  2. Run the following commands to collect the server logs:

    mkdir -p /tmp/cybereason/
    cp -R /opt/apache-tomcat-8.5.93/logs/ /tmp/cybereason/tomcat/logs/
    cp -R /opt/apache-tomcat-8.5.93/conf/ /tmp/cybereason/tomcat/conf/
    cp -R /opt/cybereason/logs/ /tmp/cybereason/logs/
    
  3. If your issue is network-related, run these commands to collect the network settings:

    iptables -nvL > /tmp/cybereason/iptables.out
    netstat -nat > /tmp/cyberesaon/netstat.out
    
  4. If your issue is network-related and the Cybereason platform shows that the Detection server is offline, capture the network traffic data using the tcpdump command:

    tcpdump -i <interface> host [web server address] -w /tmp/cyberesaon/tcpdump.out
    
  5. Open an additional SSH session, and run this command to access the WebApp server from the Detection server:

    telnet <web server address>:8443
    
  6. Wait a few seconds, and then use ctrl+c in the first session to stop tcpdump from running.

Step 2: Send the collected data to Technical Support

To send the collected data to Technical Support:

  1. Create a tar.gz file with the collected information:

    tar -czvpf cybereason.tar.gz /tmp/cybereason/
    

    Important

    It is not possible to upload a file with the tar.gz extension to the Create New Case Support page. It is recommended to create a ZIP file with this information and upload the ZIP file when opening a Support case.

  2. Open a Support case and upload the compressed file.
