Squid Syslog Subagent Flex Connector Parser

Summary:

The document outlines the development of a Squid Syslog Subagent Flex Connector Parser by Anwar Khan for HPE Protect. This parser enables handling log files from various versions of Squid (tested up to version 3.1.14) that were not previously supported by the Squid SmartConnector. Key features include: - Support for multiple Squid versions, including 2.6.STABLE21, 2.6.STABLE22, and 3.1.14. - Compatibility with existing field mappings from Squid SmartConnector but requires some modifications. - Special consideration for device address mapping that was missing in Squid SmartConnector. - Instructions on deployment, including placement of the parser and categorization file within the HPE Protect directory structure. Anwar Khan provided a RAR file containing configuration files and categorization details necessary for implementation. The document concludes with an attachment providing additional information and screenshots to aid understanding.
