Assuming you want to extract the number into a field called client, you can do that using the rex command:

| rex "client\s+(?<client>\d+)\s+connected"

I think Frank meant - client\s+(?<client>\d+)\s+connected

Oh, yeah, sorry, forgot to post it as code, which makes the triangular brackets disappear. Fixed it 🙂

Hi Ddrillic/FrankVI ,

I want to assign output value like "client 26 , client 36" to an another field .

These values should be visible in interesting fields.

That is my question.
