Unable to filter multiple Event IDs from security logs using im_msvistalog module

Tags:

#1 AshishKumar

Hi, I am doing POC on NXlog for Philips product and when i am extracting eventlogs only for security by using im_msvistalog module then it's successfully extracting logs & sending to splunk server but when i am putting filter by referring https://nxlog.co/documentation/nxlog-user-guide/eventlog-eventids.html where i have used ExtendedWindowsToCollect in Input tag then facing multiple error like unused modules, couldn't parse to Exec. Please see the below details of conf & log files. Please help me here if config file is required any changes. Note: Defined Event IDs are just an example since i have big list to be added in config file.

config file Panic Soft

define INSTALLDIR C:\Program Files\nxlog

#ModuleDir %INSTALLDIR%\modules #CacheDir %INSTALLDIR%\data #SpoolDir %INSTALLDIR%\data

define CERTDIR %INSTALLDIR%\cert define CONFDIR %INSTALLDIR%\conf\nxlog.d

Note that these two lines define constants only; the log file location

is ultimately set by the LogFile directive (see below). The

MYLOGFILE define is also used to rotate the log file automatically

(see the _fileop block).

define LOGDIR %INSTALLDIR%\data define MYLOGFILE %LOGDIR%\nxlog.log

If you are not using NXLog Manager, disable the include line

and enable LogLevel and LogFile.

include %CONFDIR%*.conf

#LogLevel INFO #LogFile %MYLOGFILE%

This block rotates %MYLOGFILE% on a schedule. Note that if LogFile

is changed in managed.conf via NXLog Manager, rotation of the new

file should also be configured there.

<Extension _fileop> Module xm_fileop

# Check the size of our log file hourly, rotate if larger than 5MB
&lt;Schedule&gt;
    Every   1 hour
    &lt;Exec&gt;

             (file_size('%MYLOGFILE%') &gt;= 5M) )
        {
             file_cycle('%MYLOGFILE%', 8);
        }
    &lt;/Exec&gt;
&lt;/Schedule&gt;

# Rotate our log file every week on Sunday at midnight
