Description
The Forcepoint NGFW (Next Generation Firewall) connector allows you to automatically export user-defined Forcepoint NGFW logs into Microsoft Sentinel in real-time. This enriches visibility into user activities recorded by NGFW, enables further correlation with data from Azure workloads and other feeds, and improves monitoring capability with Workbooks inside Microsoft Sentinel.

Install and configure the Linux agent to collect your Common Event Format (CEF) Syslog messages and forward them to Microsoft Sentinel.
> Notice that the data from all regions will be stored in the selected workspace
1. Kindly follow the steps to configure the data connector
Step A. Configure the Common Event Format (CEF) via AMA data connector
_Note:- CEF logs are collected only from Linux Agents_
1. Navigate to Microsoft Sentinel workspace ---> configuration ---> Data connector blade .
2. Search for 'Common Event Format (CEF) via AMA' data connector and open it.
3. Check If there is no existing DCR configured to collect required facility of logs, Create a new DCR (Data Collection Rule)
_Note:- It is recommended to install minimum 1.27 version of AMA agent [Learn more](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/azure-monitor/agents/azure-monitor-agent-manage?tabs=azure-portal ) and ensure there is no duplicate DCR as it can cause log duplicacy_
4. Run the command provided in the CEF via AMA data connector page to configure the CEF collector on the machine.
Step B. Forward Common Event Format (CEF) logs to Syslog agent
Set your security solution to send Syslog messages in CEF format to the proxy machine. Make sure you to send the logs to port 514 TCP on the machine's IP address.
Step C. Validate connection
Follow the instructions to validate your connectivity:
Open Log Analytics to check if the logs are received using the CommonSecurityLog schema.
It may take about 20 minutes until the connection streams data to your workspace.
If the logs are not received, run the following connectivity validation script:
1. Make sure that you have Python on your machine using the following command: python -version
2. You must have elevated permissions (sudo) on your machine
Run the following command to validate your connectivity:
