How can I add two new fields to my logs?

Hello,

On my servers I used combined Apache logs, but I added two other fields at the end of the logs : SSL_PROTOCOL and X-Forwarded-For

LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %O \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\" %{SSL_PROTOCOL}x %{X-Forwarded-For}i" combined

The logs look like this :

192.168.1.1 - - [28/Aug/2017:22:27:26 +0200] "GET /production/file HTTP/1.1" 200 601 "-" "Ruby" TLSv1.2

or
192.168.1.1 - - [28/Aug/2017:22:27:26 +0200] "GET /production/file HTTP/1.1" 200 601 "-" "Ruby" TLSv1.2 192.168.2.1 192.168.6.2

With default access_combined sourcetype the PROTOCOL and X-Forwarded are located in other fields. But I would like to add two new fields for that like TLS_version and xforwarded.

Any idea on how to do this ?

regards
