Sentriant AG to Infoblox Connector

Infoblox™ is a DHCP server appliance that writes to syslog when it vends IP addresses. These syslog
messages (DHCPACK syslog lines) are translated and forwarded to the Sentriant AG Device Activity
Capturer (DAC) by way of the connector (
NOTE
Please verify that your Infoblox software is current (NIOS™ 4.1r5-0 or later).
NOTE
After you upgrade or perform a new installation, the connector file (syslog-to-dac.py) is in the following directory:
/usr/local/nac/bin

Configuring the Infoblox Server

You must configure syslog on the Infoblox server to send debug level DHCP logs to the Sentriant AG
ES IPs on TCP port 514, using the local3 facility. The actual steps to set this up may vary by NIOS.
Contact Infoblox support for assistance (http://www.infoblox.com/support/).
If the Infoblox DHCP is clustered, there is a floating/management IP and multiple LAN IPs (one for each
of the nodes in the DHCP cluster). In this configuration:
The switches must be configured to forward DHCP requests (using iphelper, for example) to the
floating/management IP (not the individual LAN IPs)
The iptables firewall on the ESs should be configured to allow syslog traffic from the individual
LAN IPs (one entry per Infoblox DHCP node).
