Jul 8, 5:00 AM – 7:00 PM (UTC)

Dallas Area Splunk User Group

Have you been wondering about Splunk-Connect-for-Syslog and whether the hype is true? Have you tried to set it up and failed? Have you set it up successfully but found that it doesn't support an important sourcetype with out-of-the-box configurations? Come to this DASUG and see all of this done LIVE in my lab and learn that THE HYPE IS REAL HERE!

About this event

WE ARE MEETING AT LUNCH THIS TIME AND AT A NEVER-BEFORE-USED VENUE: Whole Foods in Richardson!

Yes, there will be a free lunch provided (but bring your own drink if you'd like more than water)!

You will come away knowing:

1) How to install SC4S from scratch.
2) How to manufacture fake events to test various filters.
3) How to create a custom filter for an otherwise unsupported sourcetype.

This will be BOTH a virtual event AND a live event @ NEW Whole Foods venue!

1411 E Renner Rd, 1411 East Renner Road, Richardson, 75082

Once you go into the building, it will be upstairs in commons area.
