CDR logs from Asterisk FreePBX server

[masambaghost]

Good Day Team,

I am new to Splunk and I have done the fundamental training on Splunk. Just to sharpen my knowledge, I have been trying to monitor or log CDRs from my Freepbx Asterisk 13 server to Splunk.
I hvae spent much time on google but could not find something definitive.
I have managed to add a universal forwarder to my FreePbx server but I can not see any events in Splunk when I make a call.

May you kindly assist.

I assume you want to ingest the call detail records from Feebbx . You would need to follow their documentation [ e.g. https://wiki.freepbx.org/display/FPG/CDR+User+Guide] to download the CDR files to a folder where the splunk universal forwarder can read the files [ by manual or scheduled jobs]. Once the files are available in the folder, you can use inputs.conf to read and send it to splunk indexer [ https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.2.1/Data/Monitorfilesanddirectorieswithinputs.conf]
