If you find that your AEO/AWP agent is not automatically connecting to the HUB after boot up it could be because of hostname issues. We recommend using the IP of the HUB instead of the hostname when configuring the agent. To check this setting:
Go to:
/var/ossec/etc/ossec.conf
On the 'address' line, change the hostname to the IP of the HUB
Once you have changed the entry, save the changes with
:wq
and then restart the ossec-hids process
systemctl restart ossec-hids
