Line breaks per single line for IP address

Hi Guys,

I'm trying to break events in Splunk with a text file with just ip addresss in it and no time stamps. The format is below:

1.1.1.1
1.2.3.4
192.168.1.2

How can I setup my props.conf file to break every line as a single event. I don't really care about timestamps.

You can set the following in your props.conf for the sourcetype:

[mysourcetype]
SHOULD_LINEMERGE = false
LINE_BREAKER = ([\r\n]+)

HTH,

Dave
