Hello,
I’ve been at this a while now and I can’t get it to work.
I am forwarding pfsense filter logs to Graylog into a udp syslog input.
I created a stream with a rule that must match: ‘^filterlog[.]:\s+(.)$’. This same regex is used in many pfsense extractors and work fine. I can see only those matches are sent into this new stream.
I’ve setup extractors with a lookup that translate port numbers to service names; these work fine and the respective fields appear in the stream.
Next I followed the guide from your blog to setup geoip database and lookup with cache and adapter. I can test it with an IP address and it works.
I then create a new pipeline, I connect it to the pfsense_filter_logs stream.
At this point I would expect to see the throughput, but its always 0.
I create a new rule with the following code:
rule "GeoIP lookup field src_ip"
when has_field("src_ip")
then
let geo = lookup("geoip", to_string($message.src_ip));
set_field("src_ip_geo_location", geo["coordinates"]);
set_field("src_ip_geo_country", geo["country"].iso_code);
set_field("src_ip_geo_city", geo["city"].names.en);
end
Note: my extractors do create the field “src_ip”, I can see them when I click one of the filterlog lines and it opens up with all the fields.
With that rule in place, I edit Stage 0 on the pipeline I created earlier, select ‘all rules must match’ and I select the rule I just created.
Errors and total remain at 0 and I have no idea where I can see why its not working. I checked the messages in the stream and the new fields aren’t created.
If anyone has an idea or two, please let me know :).
Thanks in advance.
