parser parser_name { geoip2( <macro-containing-the-IP-address-to-lookup> prefix() database("<path-to-geoip2-database-file>") ); };
In the following example, syslog-ng OSE retrieves the GeoIP2 data of the IP address contained in the ${HOST} field of the incoming message (assuming that in this case the ${HOST} field contains an IP address), and includes the data (prefixed with the geoip2 string) in the output JSON message.
@version: 3.11 options { keep-hostname(yes); }; source s_file { file("/tmp/input"); }; parser p_geoip2 { geoip2( "${HOST}", prefix( "geoip2." ) database( "/usr/share/GeoIP2/GeoLiteCity.dat" ) ); }; destination d_file { file( "/tmp/output" flags(syslog-protocol) template("$(format-json --scope core --key geoip2*)\n") ); }; log { source(s_file); parser(p_geoip2); destination(d_file); };
For example, for the <38>2017-05-24T13:09:46 192.168.1.1 prg00000[1234]: test message message the output will look like:
<38>1 2017-05-24T13:09:46+02:00 192.168.1.1 prg00000 1234 - [meta sequenceId="3"] {"geoip2":{"subdivisions":{"0":{"names":{"en":"Budapest"},"iso_code":"BU","geoname_id":"3054638"}},"registered_country":{"names":{"en":"Hungary"},"iso_code":"HU","geoname_id":"719819"},"postal":{"code":"1063"},"location":{"time_zone":"Europe/Budapest","longitude":"19.070200","latitude":"47.510200","accuracy_radius":"5"},"country":{"names":{"en":"Hungary"},"iso_code":"HU","geoname_id":"719819"},"continent":{"names":{"en":"Europe"},"geoname_id":"6255148","code":"EU"},"city":{"names":{"en":"Budapest"},"geoname_id":"3054643"}},"PROGRAM":"prg00000","PRIORITY":"info","PID":"1234","MESSAGE":"test message","HOST":"192.168.1.1","FACILITY":"auth","DATE":"May 24 13:09:46"}
If you are transferring your log messages into Elasticsearch, use the following rewrite rule to combine the longitude and latitude information into a single value (called geoip2.location), and set the mapping in Elasticsearch accordingly. Do not forget to include the rewrite in your log path. These examples assume that you used prefix("geoip2.") instead of the default for the geoip2 parser. For details on transferring your log messages to Elasticsearch, see elasticsearch2: Sending messages directly to Elasticsearch version 2.0 or higher (DEPRECATED).
rewrite r_geoip2 { set( "${geoip2.location.latitude},${geoip2.location.longitude}", value( "geoip2.location2" ), condition(not "${geoip2.location.latitude}" == "") ); };
In your Elasticsearch configuration, set the appropriate mappings:
{ "mappings" : { "_default_" : { "properties" : { "geoip2" : { "properties" : { "location2" : { "type" : "geo_point" } } } } } } }
The geoip2 parser has the following options.
Synopsis: | prefix() |
Description: Insert a prefix before the name part of the parsed name-value pairs to help further processing. For example:
To insert the my-parsed-data. prefix, use the prefix(my-parsed-data.) option.
To refer to a particular data that has a prefix, use the prefix in the name of the macro, for example, ${my-parsed-data.name}.
If you forward the parsed messages using the IETF-syslog protocol, you can insert all the parsed data into the SDATA part of the message using the prefix(.SDATA.my-parsed-data.) option.
Names starting with a dot (for example, .example) are reserved for use by syslog-ng OSE. If you use such a macro name as the name of a parsed value, it will attempt to replace the original value of the macro (note that only soft macros can be overwritten, see Hard versus soft macros for details). To avoid such problems, use a prefix when naming the parsed values, for example, prefix(my-parsed-data.)
For example, to insert the .geoip2 prefix, use the prefix(.geoip2) option. To refer to a particular data when using a prefix, use the prefix in the name of the macro, for example, ${geoip2.country_code} .
Synopsis: | database() |
Default: |
Description: Path to the GeoIP2 database to use. This works with absolute and relative paths as well. Note that syslog-ng OSE must have the required privileges to read this file. Do not modify or delete this file while syslog-ng OSE is running, it can crash syslog-ng OSE.
Starting with version
The syslog-ng OSE application collects various statistics and measures different metrics about the messages it receives and delivers. These metrics are collected into different counters, depending on the configuration of syslog-ng OSE. The stats-level() global option determines exactly which statistics syslog-ng OSE collects. You can access these statistics and metrics using the following methods.
Using the syslog-ng-ctl query command.
For further information about using syslog-ng-ctl commands, see The syslog-ng manual pages.
Using the internal() source.
Using the syslog-ng-ctl stats command.
For further information about using syslog-ng-ctl commands, see The syslog-ng manual pages.
Use the socat application: echo STATS | socat -vv UNIX-CONNECT:/opt/syslog-ng/var/run/syslog-ng.ctl -
If you have an OpenBSD-style netcat application installed, use the echo STATS | nc -U /opt/syslog-ng/var/run/syslog-ng.ctl command. Note that the netcat included in most Linux distributions is a GNU-style version that is not suitable to query the statistics of syslog-ng.
