Data forwarding to third party from HWF and stopping ingestion to Indexer

[rtantra]

Hi All,

Currently we are using Opsec add on to get data into SPlunk  and forwarding the duplicate copy of same data to third party (logstash).Now we want to use existing opsec add on to pull the data and forward it to third party only and stop forwarding to SPlunk indexer. Below is log flow

Data Flow:

Opsec Manger >> Splunk HWF(opsec add on) >>Forward to Indexer

                                                                                              >> forward to third party (logstash)

Questions:

Is it possible to pull data and forward only to third party without ingesting to Splunk? if yes how?

Below sis our existing config:

Config for data forwarding to third party:

props on hwf 

[opsec]

TRANSFORMS-routing=routelogstash

Transforms.conf on HWF

[routelogstash]

REGEX= .

DEST_KEY = SYSLOG_ROUTING

FORMAT=syslog_tcp_test

 outputs.conf on HWF

[syslog:syslog_tcp_test]

server=thirdparty serevrname:port

We have seprate outputs.conf for data forking to Indexers.We tried setnull and setparsing to stop data ingestion to splunk but no luck.Please suggest

@scelikok ,

Tried suggested config but no luck. Its stopping log ingestion and log forwarding both 😞

Hi @rtantra,

Can you try sending to nullqueue before sending to syslog?

props on hwf 

[opsec]
TRANSFORMS-routing=setnull,routelogstash

Transforms.conf on HWF

[routelogstash]
REGEX= .
DEST_KEY = SYSLOG_ROUTING
FORMAT=syslog_tcp_test

[setnull]
REGEX = .
DEST_KEY = queue
FORMAT = nullQueue


outputs.conf on HWF

[syslog:syslog_tcp_test]
server=thirdparty servername:port
