SolarWinds Security Event Manager (SIEM) Network Security

Syslog is the system logging protocol that forwards events to a central server for centralized monitoring; SolarWinds SIEM processes and correlates these logs in real time to alert on breaches.

Learn to use all features of SolarWinds Security Event Manager to monitor network devices, servers, users, and workstations, and deploy with active responses to block malicious attacks.

Learn how SolarWinds Security Event Manager collects and centralizes host, application, and security device logs, categorizes events, and generates prioritized alerts to detect incidents and support compliance.

Explore SolarWinds security event manager deployments. A virtual appliance extracts events from servers and workstations via TCP with agents, executes active responses, and forwards logs using TCP or UDP.

Explore useful information about SolarWinds SEM, a SIEM for network security, and learn how to apply it to enhance security operations.

Explore Gns3, the graphical network simulator that emulates real device software like Cisco IOS, Juniper Junos, and FortiGate, enabling cost-efficient, risk-free testing without disrupting production networks.

Deploy a hands-on lab for SolarWinds Security Event Manager (siem) using VirtualBox or VMware, Gns3, and the SAM appliance to simulate FortiGate, Mikrotik, and Cisco networks.

Learn to configure gns3 with nested virtualization, enable BIOS virtualization, set at least 2 GB RAM, and import and attach VirtualBox VMs for reliable connectivity.

Learn step-by-step lab troubleshooting for unreachable devices in Gns3: verify firewall, subnet, VLAN membership, correct IP addresses, and proper server and device startup order.

Integrate Sophos XG into your lab by importing primary and auxiliary appliances in Gns3, update to version 18.0.5, and enable SNMp or syslog for monitoring.

Set up and activate the Sophos XG firewall for a 30-day trial. Configure the network, register a Sophos ID, and complete the initial console steps to access the web interface.
