Configuring universal connectors

Use the legacy Configure Universal Connector page on a Managed Unit to configure universal connectors.

1. On the Collector, go to Setup > Tools and Views > Configure Universal Connector page.
2. Ensure that the Universal Connector is enabled.
3. To add a new configuration, click the add icon.
4. Select the applicable connector template or use the .conf file from the GitHub repository. For example, see the auroraMysqlCloudwatch.conf file for Aurora-MySQL-Guardium Logstash filter plug-in.
   Important: If you are configuring more than one filebeat connector on a single Managed Unit, then ensure to update the tags parameter in the filter plugin configuration file with unique values for each configuration. Not using unique values may affect the system performance.
5. In the Connector Name field, enter a unique connector name.
   Ensure that the name does not contain special characters other than underscore( _ ) and hyphen ( - ).
6. Click Save.
