| Applies To | RSA Product Set: Security Analytics RSA Product/Service Type: Security Analytics log decoder, Security Analytics packet decoder, Security Analytics concentrator RSA Version/Condition: 10.6, 11.x |
| Issue | NetWitness imposes a hard coded limit of <100,000 in the RSA NetWitness GUI. |
| Resolution | The following 3 methods may be used to Extract PCAP/LOGS: Method 1: using REST API, restricts export to 1GB or less http://<Logdecoder_IP>:50102/sdk/packets http://<Packetdecoder_IP>:50104/sdk/packets Method 2: Using Curl command line, restricts export to 1GB or less # curl -uadmin "http://<LOG_DECODER_IP>:50102/sdk/packets?render=logs%time1=<START_TIME>&time2=<END_TIME>" # curl -uadmin "http://<PACKET_DECODER_IP>:50104/sdk/packets?render=pcap%time1=<START_TIME>&time2=<END_TIME>" Method 3: Using SDK no published limitations Once connected to the log concentrator, log in to the NwConsole, and connect to the concentrator service. (Note: ssl is only used if ssl has been enabled on the appliance service. nws = ssl, nw = non-ssl) #NwConsole > login localhost:50005:[ssl] admin [password] > sdk open nw[s]://admin:[password]@[hostname]:50005 (Note: ssl is only used if ssl has been enabled on the appliance service. nws = ssl, nw = non-ssl. Also if your password has a @ character the hostame will likely not connect, try creating a new service account user and password that does not have a @) Once connected, issue the following command to begin the log extraction process: > sdk content sessions=1-now render=logs dir=”/root/logs” where=”(time='2014-03-12 18:00:00'-'2014-03-12 18:30:00' && device.class = 'windows hosts' && user.dst = 'envisionrsa')” fileExt=.log append=arc_log_extract Command Breakdown: sessions – the first session until now render – generate the file as a "logs" or "pcap" for pckets dir - location where the log file will be saved where – the where query from step 3 fileExt – the extension that will be placed on the created log file append – the name of the log file that will be created Sample output:
