Logstash filter to match IP's

How to drop the events which are having the source IP with 10...** (starts with 10 series).

I have tried the below code by using regular expression but it is not working, kindly help me to find the correct solution.

filter {
grok {
match => { "message" => "%{SYSLOGTIMESTAMP:syslog_timestamp} %{SYSLOGHOST:syslog_hostname} %{DATA:syslog_program}(?:[%{POSINT:syslog_pid}])?: %{WORD:status} %{WORD:auth_method} for %{USER:username} from %{IP:src_ip} port %{POSINT:port} ssh2" }
}
if ([src_ip] == /10.([0-9]{1,3}).([0-9]{1,3}).([0-9]{1,3})$/)
{
drop{}
}

}

just tested:

/10.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?).(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?).(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)/

on http://www.regexpal.com

should match real IP's that start with 10.x.x.x but not things like 10.355.1.1 which isn't a valid IP.

if ([src_ip] == /10.([0-9]{1,3}).([0-9]{1,3}).([0-9]{1,3})$/)
{
drop{}
}

As documented, use =~ and not == for regular expression matches. Other comments:

  • You should anchor your expression to the beginning of the string.
  • Periods should be escaped.
  • There's little point in matching the whole IP address. All you need to know is if the string begins with "10.".
  • For less trivial IP patterns consider using the cidr filter.

Hence, if you want to stick with a simple conditional this is sufficient:

if [src_ip] =~ /^10\./
