All extra lines that do not belong to these events, I dont want the indexing splunk.

I understand that I must change the LINEA_BREAKER IN props.conf
I do not know how to build the regular expression. Someone could be so kind to help me assemble the expression?

thank you very much, greetings!
Javier.
