Splunk add-on for Check Point OPSEC LEA: Change HOST field to be firewall IP not the management station ip

We have been ingesting our Check Point logs via the Check Point OPSEC LEA add-on and finally realized that the HOST being reported is always our management station IP where we are pulling logs from... Is there a way to change this in the OPSEC Lea add on or would we be better off doing this in transforms.conf and props.conf on the heavy forwarder?

You can use props and transforms to overwrite it (e.g. based on the orig= field).

What field was your fw coming into Splunk as? And did you have to change logging on mgmt server to get the fw info to be sent to Splunk?
