No Messages In or Out after rebooting Graylog Server

I am pretty sure that is just logging in UTC.

Can you give the graylog serverlog from startup after reboot? As in, reboot, stop the graylog service, set the tail, then start graylog and post the log results? Pre boot logs seem fine.

That makes sense.

Here they are.

sudo tail -f /var/log/graylog-server/server.log

Lets focus on the raw input for fortigate. We should see something there. double check all simple things, make sure the port is matching the expected port of data from fortigate. You can watch the port to make sure it sees traffic coming in (there are commands in the community you can research on how to do that… (busy day here)) You could even rebuild the port in case there is an issue there?

Point being that even if Elasticsearch was down, you should still see Graylog receiving and queuing up data for Elastic. Maybe a queued OS configuration change before the reboot, maybe OS security or related that is blocking the port?

Happy New Year.

Can you give me a hit on how to do this?

I rebooted the server, no messages. Ran netstat -tu and tcpdump port 514. I don’t particuarly understand the the output.

I guess I am surpriced to find traffic on port 514. Is that the Fortigate or is the Graylog server listening to itself? Does this indicate there is a problem getting the traffic form 514 to 1514?

in previous posts you have the fortigate receiving on 1415 - assumes that FortiGate sends to Graylog on port 1415 or you are using something like iptables to route from whatever FortiGate is sending to (514 maybe?) over to port 1415 before Graylog receives it. Graylog shouldn’t be receiving on 514 since it is a protected port… unless you have messed around to allow that… which is possible too, though unadvised. regardless, make sure the port sent from FortiGate is aligned either directly to 1415 or whatever you have in between to make it go to 1415 is set up correctly. For instance it might make sense that an iptables change or misconfiguration doesn’t take place until reboot.

That is correct. In the FortiGate UI I cannot change the port number. So I used iptables to send the traffic to 1514.

Would you expect to see the traffic on 1514 instead of 514?

I followed the instruction in the Graylog docs. So I don’t think so.

So this ended up being the problem. When I was rebooting something happened to the iptables. Though I’m not sure what, you can see them in my first post.

I think (it was yesterday afternoon) I ran this command to make it work.
sudo iptables-save > /etc/iptables/rules.v4

ldog@graylog:~$ cat /etc/iptables/rules.v4

Now I’m trying to understand iptables (which seems complicated at best). Shouldn’t those rules I added be under :PREROUTING ACCEPT [404:39893]?

It also seems like I should delete the duplicate rules. But the instructions I was finding online seemed like it might delete both lines, since the lines are exactly the same.

I was also hesitant to play around with it since it’s finally working!

What? Its working? You mean all of it!??! :smiley:

I don’t know enough about IPTABLES to help with configuration… I say let it run and be happy for now… spend some time on researching iptables - there are lots of posts on it in the community…

That was it.

Thanks @tmacgbay and @gsmith for all your help, I really appropriate it. I definitely learned some stuff along the way.

Glad you fixed your issue :slight_smile: BTW I seen this in the forum.

@gsmith found my post on the iptables subject. Thanks!

To summarize:

  1. When you make an iptables change it will not persist across reboots. To save the config I use:
    sudo /sbin/iptables-save

  2. When you make a change to iptables it also doesn’t effect existing flows. If your Fortinet box is sending udp packets to 514 it will just stick there and the redirect to 1514 will never happen. Once you realize that’s what’s happening you can reboot the box and that will clear the iptables state. But I found a much easier way.

# If conntrack is not already installed...
sudo yum update
sudo yum install conntrack
# List all existing connections...
sudo conntrack -L
# Flush all connections in the state table...
sudo conntrack -F

The conntrack utility does the flush. After the flush you’ll see the redirect from 514 to 1514 starts immediately (along with any other changes you’ve made to iptables).

Sometimes I wish Linux people were better at documenting how things work! It took me about six months from finding the connection tracking problem to finding a solution. (Don’t worry, it’s not my full time job. It wasn’t six months of full-time effort!)

Hope that helps.

Thanks @danmassa7. I also read through your post that @gsmith mentioned and found that helpful.
