Log normalization

hello everyone ,

Please I am stuck in the “log normalization” step , logs of firewall Palo alto , I read on the documentation of graylog, to standardize the logs one uses “extractor” . : Copy input, Grok pattern, Json, Regular expression, repleace with regular expression, Split & Index, Substring, Lookup Table …what is the most suitable method with graylog to normalize the logs

normalize%20logs

For Palo Alto I’d recommend a Grok pattern, but regex and split&index also would work…

There are some content pack options in the Marketplace you might be able to look at too such as https://marketplace.graylog.org/addons/f9facfdf-3d3d-423d-9bd0-4fba9db407ff (search the marketplace for more options), but keep in mind that depending on the version of PAN, some of these might not work. Additinoally, the creator of the content pack may not normalize to the field names you want so that might need adjusting.

Hi @megan201296 thank you for your reply., Grok pattern " Grok" ? please “grok” what does that mean, exactly? in my case how can I configure it according to my equipment Palo alto A 820 ,


You can also find grok pattern testes/debuggers.

I import content pack options in the Marketplace

Now in Inputs : i have PAN-syslog Syslog TCP i changed his port , to 1514, it’s his default port

but I have not received any logs yet, maybe i keep his default port, and reconfigure the palo alto to send in tcp and the Pan syslog port ??
Please help please

the logs are not like before, now they are very clear

fantastic
what can do some time what you spend with testing and searching.

I think this project not more than few hours with work. You opened this topic 7 days before.

@macko003 Maybe you’re right but it’s not nice of you, for the work I don’t have only Graylog…and for a beginner like me it’s not bad … in any case thank you
