Graylog stop logging himself

[Hoygen]

Greetings,
I get a lot of messages from 127.0.0.1
How can I disable graylog from sending to himself?
Kindest regards.

Did you use the OVA Image? Then you can configure it with Graylog-ctl - in a limited way:

http://docs.graylog.org/en/2.4/pages/configuration/graylog_ctl.html

If not, just stop ingesting the log messages from localhost.

how can I stop ingesting messages from localhost?
I’m really new to the whole graylog system.

Did you use the OVA or did you have installed Graylog in some other way?

I inherited an already installed system, but I think it was installed from the ova.
