Illuminates with GELF inputs

Graylog Central (peer support)
1

Hi All,

I’ve got a platform which is configured to use GELF as the input over native syslog etc, it goes through NXLOG for reference (Syslog in, GELF out).

I’ve been asked to look at the Illuminate Context packs as we’ve recently had a license upgrade. Has anyone ever converted or pre-processed these messages from GELF into a format the at the Illuminate Context Packs will natively pickup and work from?

@Tdvorak - something you might be able to help me with?

Thanks

Hey @psfletchthetek,

This depends on the Illuminate pack, which one are you looking to take advantage of?

Quite a few tbf.

The first one is the pfsense pack.

For various reasons then nxlog collector is there and can’t be changed and I was sort of hoping gelf format would be natively supported in most things.

According to the documentation

You will need an Syslog input in Graylog.

So I think you will not be able to use GELF format.

This is the bit I’m struggling with.

Graylog hasn’timplemented a solution that can take in its own logging format?

I think they have abandoned it because in Illuminate it’s never used.
