For regex, assuming it is in a field named "request", try

| rex field=request "(?<domain>[^\.]*\.[^\.]*)$"

Out the other end, if I didn't mess it all up because this was a pain to do on a phone, you should have a field domain that is what you want.

(EDIT: dur. First sip of coffee went in, actual answer came out.)
