Configuration of Splunk for Citrix NetScaler App with AppFlow

jodros — Mon, 28 Sep 2020 15:00:00 GMT

We have successfully installed the Splunk for Citrix NetScaler app as well as the Splunk_TA_IPFIX_UDP_NIX. We are getting syslog data in the app. We are also getting data over the AppFlow port, but it appears to be a listing of ViP's on the NetScaler, not application flow data.

We have enabled AppFlow on the netscaler as detailed in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRfVBEjocSM. The AppFlow policy shows active, but is not getting any hits. If anyone can assist, I would greatly appreciate it.

A sanitized sample log received over the AppFlow port is below.

TimeStamp="2013-10-17T08:02:07"; Template="265"; Observer="0"; Address="10.x.x.x"; Port="62526"; observationDomainId="0"; incarnationNumber="2152"; appNameAppID="12345"; appName="Generic_App_Name"; appTemplateName="";

Thanks

I had this same issue (Netscaler 10.1). Turns out I needed to turn on Appflow for the Netscaler Gateway virtual server. In 'Configuration > NetScaler Gateway > Virtual Servers', click a Virtual Server and open it. Along the top of the window are some check boxes, one of which is 'AppFlow Logging'. I suspect there is a similar option for things other than the Netscaler Gateway if you're doing something else with your Netscaler.
