auditbeat: docs incorrectly state that socket_type will be reverted to unicast if multicast is not available #37174
Closed
Description
From here:
multicast
can be used in kernel versions 3.16 and newer. By usingmulticast
Auditbeat will receive an audit event broadcast that is not exclusive to a a single process. This is ideal for situations whereauditd
is running and managing the rules. Ifmulticast
is specified, but the kernel version is less than 3.16 Auditbeat will automatically revert tounicast
.
Similar wording is in the auditd_manager integration here:
If it is set to
true
, but the kernel version is less than 3.16 it will be automatically disabled.
Remove this incorrect advice.
