Suricata Input Plugin

This plugin reports internal performance counters of the Suricata IDS/IPS engine, such as captured traffic volume, memory usage, uptime, flow counters, and much more. It provides a socket for the Suricata log output to write JSON stats output to, and processes the incoming data to fit Telegraf's format.

Configuration

[[inputs.suricata]]
  ## Data sink for Suricata stats log.
  # This is expected to be a filename of a
  # unix socket to be created for listening.
  source = "/var/run/suricata-stats.sock"

  # Delimiter for flattening field keys, e.g. subitem "alert" of "detect"
  # becomes "detect_alert" when delimiter is "_".
  delimiter = "_"

Metrics

Fields in the 'suricata' measurement follow the JSON format used by Suricata's stats output. See http://suricata.readthedocs.io/en/latest/performance/statistics.html for more information.

All fields are numeric.

      • thread: Global for global statistics (if enabled), thread IDs (e.g. W#03-enp0s31f6) for thread-specific statistics

Suricata configuration

Suricata needs to deliver the 'stats' event type to a given unix socket for this plugin to pick up. This can be done, for example, by creating an additional output in the Suricata configuration file:

- eve-log:
    enabled: yes
    filetype: unix_stream
    filename: /tmp/suricata-stats.sock
    types:
      - stats:
         threads: yes

FreeBSD tuning

Under FreeBSD it is necessary to increase the localhost buffer space to at least 16384, default is 8192 otherwise messages from Suricata are truncated as they exceed the default available buffer space, consequently no statistics are processed by the plugin.

sysctl -w net.local.stream.recvspace=16384
sysctl -w net.local.stream.sendspace=16384
