Resource Load Tips and Tricks

  • Redirect dynamic page to static page if resource issues arise from high traffic to a single Webpage
  • sar -q
  • top -c
  • netstat -antp
  • lsof -itcp
  • lsof -i :80

    When you see the PID that is connecting to a remote port 80 rather than accepting a connection to local port 80, use lsof -p on that pid number to find the working directory of it.


Security


Check if we support insecure SSLv2:
  • openssl s_client -connect 127.0.0.1:443 -ssl2
 
 
 

Check for outbound connections to remote port 80

  • netstat -atnp |awk '$5 ~ /80/ {print $0}'
 
The script above this line uses regex to search for "80" within the 5th column of the `netstat -atnp` command output
 
  • netstat -atnp |awk '$5 ~ /80$/ {print $0}'
Will do the same, making sure the string search looks for "80" at the end of a string




    

  • netstat -atnp |awk '$5 ~ /:80$/ {print $0}'
    

    • 


Will do the same, making sure the string search looks for "80" at the end of a string AND is preceded by a colon.

Configure rsyslog Server on Fedora




















Image







         It can be very beneficial for system administrators and network administrators, especially, to log system messages from other machines on the network to a centralized hub.  Fedora 20 uses rsyslog as the default syslogd service; this allows administrators to configure remote logging.  I'll be detailing the necessary configuration steps of rsyslog in Fedora 20 to allow logging messages from a DD-WRT router.  This will entail Edit /etc/rsyslog.conf  Set up firewall rule to allow incoming connection to server  Configure DD-WRT router to send syslogd messages to our server    rsyslog server  Our server will be the Fedora 20 machine.  There are two configuration files in the /etc/  directory that are of interest to us: /etc/rsyslog.conf /etc/sysconfig/rsyslog  However, the latter file is not useful anymore as it states: # Options for rsyslogd # Syslogd options are deprecated since rsyslog v3. # If you want to use them, switch to compatibility mode 2 by "-c 2" # See rsy

RHEL 7 and CentOS 7 syslog Rate Limit





















https://access.redhat.com/solutions/1417483  In RHEL 7 there is rate-limiting both in systemd-journald and in rsyslog's imjournal module   Lower Ratelimit Interval  Lower the interval for rate-limiting and increase the burst level in order to minimize the possibility of losing log messages when the threshold is reached for the specified number of messages logged within the specified interval.  Rate-limiting is specific to each process, so there's usually no reason to change this.  It is also inadvisable to disable this feature entirely!   grep -i rate /etc/systemd/journald.conf  #RateLimitInterval=30s #RateLimitBurst=1000 RateLimitInterval=10s RateLimitBurst=3000    grep -i rate /etc/rsyslog.conf  #$imjournalRatelimitInterval 600    <--default $imjournalRatelimitInterval 300 $imjournalRatelimitBurst 30000    journal corruption   journalctl --verify    journalctl --force
