Hi @dbashyam 

try this on your search

| rex field=_raw "(?<username>\w+@\w+.\w+):(?<group>\w+):(?<ip>\d+\.\d+.\d+.\d+)(?:[^:\n]*Connected){1}\s+\w+\s+(?<destination>\w+)"
“The answer is out there, Neo, and it’s looking for you, and it will find you if you want it to.”

@aasabatini  if I have any other string apart from "Connected", like copy, connecting, failed to connect etc., is there a way to add that condition? I tried the pipe symbol (for or) but it did not work

 

| rex field=_raw "(?<username>\w+@\w+.\w+):(?<group>\w+):(?<ip>\d+\.\d+.\d+.\d+)(?:[^:\n]*Connected){1}\s+\w+\s+(?<destination>\w+)"
