UDP routing on indexer

Hi All ,

One of our clients wats to use single Splunk instance (indexer) for both receiving and sending data.
They receiving syslog data on port 9997. The next step suppose be routing this data to external system (SIEM).
I've tried to configure routing from indexer to check the issue,but without any success:

props.conf:
[udp_oag_xml]
MAX_EVENTS =
NO_BINARY_CHECK = true
category = Custom
description = udp_oag_xml
disabled = false
maxDist =
pulldown_type = true

[source::udp:514]
TRANSFORMS-udp = send_to_syslog

transforms.conf:

[send_to_syslog]
REGEX = .
DEST_KEY=_SYSLOG_ROUTING
FORMAT=my_syslog_group

outputs.conf:
[syslog:my_syslog_group]
server = x.x.x.x:514
type = udp
priority = NO_PRI

If it's doable ,I would like to know how.

Regards,
Dmitry

yes this is doable
sendCookedData = false in outputs.conf and also see this for more information http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.2.1/Forwarding/Forwarddatatothird-partysystemsd
