Agent Configuration Reference

The settings in quasaragent.cfg are common to all types of agents (filesystem scanner, SQL scanner, etc).

quasaragent.cfg is an TOML file (INI-like structure, but test values need quotes)

Example structure:

[agent]
server = "127.0.0.1"

[logging]
master_level = "INFO"
file_enable = false
file_level = "INFO"

Common Agent Settings

\”server\”

Setting address of the Quasar server.

This can be an IP address or a fully-qualified DNS name.

Logging Settings

\”master_level\”

Setting logging level of scanning process.

These track UNIX SYSLOG log levels – DEBUG, INFO, NOTE, WARN, ERROR, CRIT

NOTE: the syslog_ settings only apply to Linux agents.

Directory Settings

Default directory locations are displayed by the Quasar agent on startup – to console if in foreground mode, and/or to the Windows event log or Linux syslog if in service mode.

The dirs section can be used to override default directory locations if the need arises.
