Cisco AMP event stream configuration

Configure a log source in QRadar® to manage a specific event stream that you want QRadar to collect events from.

To connect to a specific Cisco AMP event stream, you also need to have access to the Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP) credentials that are provided by the Cisco AMP for Endpoints API.

The Cisco AMP for Endpoints API is used to manage event streams. For more information about supported queries to manage the Cisco AMP for Enpoint API, see Cisco AMP for Endpoints API (https://api-docs.amp.cisco.com/).
Important: If an issue occurs while you use the Cisco AMP for Endpoints API, contact your Cisco administrator for assistance. For Cisco contact information, see Cisco Support (https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/security/fireamp-endpoints/tsd-products-support-series-home.html).
The following table describes the parameters that require specific values to collect events from the Cisco AMP for Endpoints API by using the RabbitMQ protocol:

Log Source Identifier

Type a unique name for the log source.

The Log Source Identifier can be any valid value and does not need to reference a specific server. The Log Source Identifier can be the same value as the Log Source Name. If more than one Cisco AMP log source is configured, you might identify the first log source as CiscoAMP1, the second log source as CiscoAMP2, and so on.
