Cirrushow to add HTTP HOST to telemetry (Generic HTTP)?
Hi, We got Telemtry working. We used the Generic HTTP method. For LTM, a lot of info is sent, but the 'HTTP HOST' is missing. We used this configuration create ltm profile request-log telemetry_tr...
It has been resolved via the github issue.
Solution:
For anyone who would need this:
you have to add: http_host=${Host} to the request logging profile.
Request log template becomes (similar for response logging): event_source="request_logging",hostname="$BIGIP_HOSTNAME",client_ip="$CLIENT_IP",server_ip="$SERVER_IP",http_method="$HTTP_METHOD",http_uri="$HTTP_URI",virtual_name="$VIRTUAL_NAME",event_timestamp="$DATE_HTTP",http_host="${host}"For us specifically, it was for the F5-Elastic integration, info docs below:

CirrusHi, I allready tried $HTTP_HOST but that didn't work. Documentation doen't mention anything about HTTP HOST and there is no "definitive list off variables", so i might need to contact F5 Support. the info about JMESPath was informative, thanks.
If anyone encountered the same problem and knows the answer, feel free to share! 🙂
