I am using the foollowing config file  
filter{  
grok{  
match=\>[  
"message",

"(?:?|&)C=%{DATA:kw}&%{DATA}\sT\s%{DATA:town}\sS\s%{WORD:state}\s%{DATA}%{IP:ip}"  
]  
}  
grok{  
match=\>[  
"message",  
"(?:?|&)SRC=%{DATA:src}(?:&|$)"  
]  
}  
}  
output {  
elasticsearch {  
host =\> localhost  
}  
stdout { codec =\> rubydebug }  
}  
And I thought "kw", "town", "state", etc. will be fields in elastic search.  
But trying

[http://localhost:9200/\_search?q=](http://localhost:9200/_search?q=)"town:\* AND state:\*"  
I am getting

{"took":5,"timed\_out":false,"\_shards":{"total":5,"successful":5,"failed":0},"hits":{"_total":0_,"max\_score":null,"hits":[]}}
