Re: [graylog2] Re: Problem generating/loading chunked Gelf message in graylog2
Thanks Bernd, but we want to send log to graylog2 without modifying PHP configuration or application. Could you write a very simple sample of chunked message for graylog2 (in the official documentation there isn't any sample of chunked message, personally I think it is not sufficiently explained) Thank you again.

Re: [graylog2] Graylog 1.0 UDP process buffer performance
I installed unbound locally and used this, and it seems to have resolved the issue.

The code for doing the reverse lookups in Graylog did not change in a long time, so this problem is not new in 1.0. I my test setup enabling force_rdns for a syslog input reduced the throughput from around 7000 msg/s to 300 msg/s. This was without a local DNS cache. Once I installed a DNS cache on the Graylog server, the throughput went up to around 3000 msg/s. We will investigate if there is a sane way to cache the reverse lookups ourselves. In the meantime I suggest to test with a DNS cache installed on the Graylog server nodes to see if that helps or to disable the force_rdns setting.

Re: [graylog2] Logs from Cisco ASA with bad source field
Roberto, ah, okay. Sorry, I didn't know that you have other machines reporting via Syslog. Then you should create the Syslog input again. Make sure that the Syslog and Raw input are not listening on the same port! So you either have to change the port on your Cisco ASA or on your windows machines. Regarding syslog-ng: You can install syslog-ng and forward the Cisco ASA messages via that one. But then you have to pre-process the messages in syslog-ng. Otherwise the same messages would arrive in Graylog.

Re: [graylog2] Logs from Cisco ASA with bad source field
Bernd, I've created a Raw INPUT as you said but after that all the sources from Windows servers are bad. So maybe I can correct de Cisco servers logs but I buy a new problem with my Windows servers. Is there any universal solution ? Maybe like Alejandro says, installing just a syslog-ng for cisco servers and forward the logs after that to graylog??

Re: [graylog2] Logs from Cisco ASA with bad source field
Bernd, thanks a lot for your help... Now I understand what you tell me, but just a comment: When I created the new Syslog UDP INPUT, I chek the rDNS resolution option. Because a don't have configured an internal DNS for reverse resolution in my Graylog server, the source fields now are just IP's and not hostnamesthis is better than having thrash in the source field. I think this solution is good, but I'll try what you suggest. Thanks a lot, Roberto El lunes, 2 de marzo de 2015, 13:02:16 (UTC-3), Bernd Ahlers escribió: Roberto, ah, okay. Sorry, I didn't know that you have other machines reporting via Syslog. Then you should create the Syslog input again. Make sure that the Syslog and Raw input are not listening on the same port! So you either have to change the port on your Cisco ASA or on your windows machines. Regarding syslog-ng: You can install syslog-ng and forward the Cisco ASA messages via that one. But then you have to pre-process the messages in syslog-ng. Otherwise the same messages would arrive in Graylog.
