In a standard Wazuh 4.x stack, which component is responsible for receiving events from agents, decoding them, applying rules, and generating alerts?
Correct: B. The Wazuh manager (analysisd/remoted, etc.) receives agent events, decodes and correlates them against rules, and writes alerts. The indexer stores them, Filebeat ships them, and the dashboard visualizes them.
An analyst is building the Wazuh central components and needs a full-text search and storage engine for alerts. Which component provides this, and what is it a fork of?
Correct: A. The Wazuh indexer is a search and analytics engine based on OpenSearch (itself forked from Elasticsearch 7.10). It stores and indexes the alerts and telemetry that the manager produces.
What is the role of Filebeat in a Wazuh deployment on the manager node?
Correct: B. Filebeat reads the manager's alerts.json output and ships it (typically over TLS) to the Wazuh indexer for storage and indexing. Decoding/rules happen in the manager, not Filebeat.
By default, which port does the Wazuh manager listen on for encrypted agent communication (agent enrollment data and events)?
Correct: A. Agents send events to the manager on TCP 1514 (remoted). 1515 is the enrollment daemon (authd), 55000 is the manager RESTful API, and 9200 is the indexer.
Map the daemon to its default port for a self-registering agent. Which TWO pairings are correct? (Choose TWO)
Correct: A and B. wazuh-authd listens on TCP 1515 to register agents and issue the key; wazuh-remoted then receives the agent's encrypted events on TCP 1514. The 55000 port is the manager API, not event ingest.
