it looks to me like your ruleset is not matching the rule
are you sure that %kerntime:word% includes the square brackets and it shouldn't be [%kerntime:word%] instead?
there is a special type 'iptables' that was created explicitly for matching the name=value format of iptables rules.
I think your rule can be simplified to something like: rule=: [%kerntime:word%] Denied: %iptables% David Lang On Tue, 16 Jul 2013, Todd Mortensen wrote:

My goal is to parse out my iptable firewall logs into a cee format so I can then send them to elasticsearch. But so far my logs just show unparsed items. Can anyone shed any light to where I am going wrong here. Relevant sections from rsyslog.conf module(load="mmnormalize") action(type="mmnormalize" UseRawMsg="off" ruleBase="/etc/rsyslog.d/normalize.rb") module(load="mmjsonparse") #template(name="cee" type="string" string="%$!all-json%\n") template(name="cee" type="string" string="%$!%\n") *.* { action (name="cee" type="omfile" Template="cee" file="/var/log/cee.log") } I have also tried a couple variations of this but they still don't match normalize.rb rule=: %kerntime:word% Denied: IN=%in:word% OUT= MAC=%mac:word% SRC=%src-ip:ipv4% DST=%dst-ip:ipv4% LEN=%len:number% TOS=%tos:word% PREC=%prec:word% TTL=%ttl:number% ID=%id:number% %DF:word% PROTO=%proto:word% SPT=%src-port:number% DPT=%dst-port:number% WINDOW=%window:number% RES=%res:word% %pkt-type:word% URGP=%urgp:number% I also tried to use the iptales type, but I am not able to find many docs on its usage. rule=: %kerntime:word% Denied: %iptables:iptables% Sample log line: [1084540.211910] Denied: IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=00:30:48:90:cc:a6:00:30:48:da:48:e8:08:00 SRC=10.10.10.10 DST=10.10.10.11 LEN=60 TOS=0x10 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=28843 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=44075 DPT=444 WINDOW=14600 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 This is what I see in my cee logfile and it shows unpared-data. # { "originalmsg": "[1084540.211910] Denied: IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=00:30:48:90:cc:a6:00:30:48:da:48:e8:08:00 SRC=10.10.10.10 DST=10.10.10.11 LEN=60 TOS=0x10 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=28843 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=44075 DPT=444 WINDOW=14600 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 ", "unparsed-data": "[1084540.211910] Denied: IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=00:30:48:90:cc:a6:00:30:48:da:48:e8:08:00 SRC=10.10.10.10 DST=10.10.10.11 LEN=60 TOS=0x10 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=28843 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=44075 DPT=444 WINDOW=14600 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 " } _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
