Well, Hello everybody,
Actually, I'm working with Netflow protocol and have been working fine.
But, i would like work with Syslog too.
In my case i have some routers Cisco , i get data from Netflow protocol and show it on Kibana.
I'm not nothing sure, How i can configure it.
IF someone could help me to understand... because I don't how well is work.
~¿What i need?

  • ¿I need configure protocol in logstash how in my Router?
    -¿Is configuration similar to Netflow?
    -¿I need a new template?

Att: Thanks (^~^)-/ .

Logstash has a set of plugins you can download for that. I guess you are using the Netflow codec plugin to manage the Netflow information. So, there is this one for syslog https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/plugins-inputs-syslog.html. You only have to edit the settings file that your Logstash uses to receive and send info to elasticsearch

I am not so sure of it. I know Metricbeat is useful to send metrics from a system and its services to Elasticsearch, but I am not sure if it will work for your Cisco routers.
