How to extract mac address from different logs?

Hi,

I'm trying to extract some fields from my Access Point Aruba in order to be CIM compliant. For authentication log I have two kinds of event:

 

Login failed:

cli[5405]: <341004> <WARN> AP:ML_AP01 <................................>  Client 60:f2:62:8c:a8:a7 authenticate fail because RADIUS server authentication failure

Login success:

stm[5434]: <501093> <NOTI> AP:ML_AP01 <..................................> Auth success: 60:f2:62:8c:a8:a7: AP ...................................ML_AP01

 

My goal is to extract the mac address after "Client" in the first log and the mac after "Auth success" in the second one in a common field called "src", can someone please help me?

Thanks in advance!
