CirrostratusF5 Kibana integration
Guys, can any one help me to get kibana/Elastic search integrated with ASM please? I am new to ELK and would like to start off the kibana as a test case. I went through Elastic site but it looks a bit complex, any straight forward way to get it started which you might me knowing, Thanks
What is your goal for this integration? You could log ASM events via syslog to logstash. These should help you get started:

what do you want to do exactly? search through the ASM logging which is put on kibana?
or do you want to put ASM in front of kibana?
or ?

Here's another resource I used to configure this, I recommend High-Speed-Logging within the F5 to send to your syslog server.

Vijith_182946We have a managed security provider who uses loglogic as a their log collection and correlation tool and we have many issues searching through logs. Basically we are looking for to search through logs (with logstasch) and a nice front end which is why i think kibana is good.
I didnt understand what you meant by kibana in front of ASM, does this possible to view logs with only Kibana? Thanks.
