Getting Data In

How would I filter out fields via Props.conf?

I am forwarding windows events from graylog to a UF and then UF to Indexer.
I have a props.conf to create field alias from the Graylog fields. Once I have these I want to eliminate the gray log fields from being indexed.

Here is Props.conf.

FIELDALIAS-winlogbeat_as_host = winlogbeat_fields_collector_node_id as host
FIELDALIAS-winlogbeat_as_eventid = winlogbeat_event_id as EventCode
FIELDALIAS-winlogbeat_as_processname = winlogbeat_event_data_ProcessName as Process_Name
FIELDALIAS-winlogbeat_as_logonid = winlogbeat_event_data_TargetLogonId as Logon_ID
FIELDALIAS-winlogbeat_as_user = winlogbeat_event_data_TargetUserName  as user
FIELDALIAS-winlogbeat_as_src_user = user as src_user
FIELDALIAS-winlogbeat_as_action = winlogbeat_keywords  as action
FIELDALIAS-winlogbeat_as_security_id = winlogbeat_event_data_TargetUserSid as Security_ID
FIELDALIAS-winlogbeat_as_account_domain = winlogbeat_event_data_TargetDomainName as Account_Domain
FIELDALIAS-winlogbeat_as_logontype = winlogbeat_event_data_LogonType as Logon_Type
FIELDALIAS-winlogbeat_as_srcip = winlogbeat_event_data_IpAddress as src_ip
FIELDALIAS-winlogbeat_as_src = winlogbeat_computer_name   as src
FIELDALIAS-winlogbeat_as_destip = src_ip as dest_ip

How would I eliminate the winlogbeat fields from being indexed?

Thanks!

As I understand it, the original fields are always retained.
