Distributed Collector Settings¶

You can use the Distributed Collector settings to connect a distributed collector to a remote LogPoint.

A distributed collector collects logs from different sources, normalizes them using the signatures applied, and forwards them to a remote LogPoint. You must configure sources and storage location in the remote LogPoint.

1. Go to Configure >> Settings >> System >> Distributed Collector Settings.

2. Select the LogPoint Collector where you want to configure the distributed collector settings. You can only select a single LogPoint collector.

   Note

   • You can only add distributed collector in a LogPoint collector.

   • You cannot add a single LogPoint collector to multiple remote LogPoint instances.

3. Click Next.
