Output Types
Once a domain or a host/service is being monitored the event stream can be sent to multiple outputs. There are three types of outputs:
-
File – Creates an activity log as a TSV or JSON file for every day of activity
-
Syslog – Sends activity events to the configured SIEM server. For file servers, this option is also used to send activity events to Netwrix Threat Manager.
-
Netwrix Threat Manager – Sends Active Directory activity events to Netwrix Threat Manager
noteThis output type is only available for Monitored Domains
See the Output for Monitored Domains topic and the Output for Monitored Hosts topic for information on adding an output.
Output configurations vary based on the type of domain/host selected.
