Having issues with Splunk extracting the fields from Snort events being forwarded to Universal Forwarders. UF is configured to receive events on UDP 514 as soucetype=snort. The scenario is as follows:

Snort sensor--(sends event UDP 514)-->Splunk UF---(sends event TCP 9997)-->Splunk Indexers
Environment: Splunk v 7.3.1
Snort for Splunk is on the UF, SH, and Indexers.

event data was not in "true" snort format. data fields were cooked with different field names. had to create custom mappings to make it function properly.
