Syslog to Kibana

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

Hi team, How is the coffee today?
I am here at the office and i have just deployed the HELK stack. But i am a total noob. I am doing some reading and testing. However i cannot find anything to pattern match to fit my current issue. It may be simple for you pros so here goes.

I have firewall that spits out syslogs and i would like to have these logs sent to KIBANA.
Can anyone help please?

Hello,

Great question :coffee:

So the best way to do this would be to use filebeat - https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/current/filebeat-input-syslog.html

You will send that to elasticsearch and then look at the logs using Kibana.

Hope that helps.
Thanks,
Bhavya
