Hi All,

Thanks for helping me sort out my previous issue which is about FortiGate firewall [FortiGate Firewall](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/fortigate-firewall/129245/11)

I have another one which is Sidewinder firewall.  
Can anyone guide me which is the simple way to parse in logstash.

Here is sample Syslog. I would like to extract source ip, dstip, srcport, dstport, dst\_geo, application,etc.

```
          <133>Oct 30 00:02:02 sw1 auditd: date="2013-10-30 05:02:02 +0000",fac=f_dns_proxy,area=a_proxy,type=t_nettraffic,pri=p_major,pid=2083,logid=0,cmd=dnsp,hostname=sw1.dtc.local,event="session end",netsessid=686a0527092ca,srcip=10.38.1.28,srcport=61132,srczone=internal,protocol=17,dst_geo=RU,dstip=83.xx4.xx.228,dstport=53,dstzone=external,bytes_written_to_client=185,bytes_written_to_server=42,rule_name="Outbound Web_4",cache_hit=1,start_time="2013-10-30 05:02:02 +0000",application=DNS

           <133>Oct 30 01:22:20 sw1 auditd: date="2013-10-30 06:22:20 +0000",fac=f_dns_proxy,area=a_proxy,type=t_nettraffic,pri=p_major,pid=2083,logid=0,cmd=dnsp,hostname=sw1.dtc.local,event="session end",netsessid=3ea405270a59c,srcip=10.38.1.28,srcport=61132,srczone=internal,protocol=17,dst_geo=US,dstip=4.53.58.200,dstport=53,dstzone=external,bytes_written_to_client=241,bytes_written_to_server=41,rule_name="Outbound Web_4",cache_hit=1,start_time="2013-10-30 06:22:20 +0000",application=DNS

Hi John,

This can be done using the KV filter in logstash. Have you tried this out?

Regards,

Thanks, Nerd. Let me try with previous kv filter and see. Hope it will works.
