Configuring Splunk to use the F5 Splunk appΒΆ

In order to get Splunk to process and display Analytics data from your BIG-IPs, you need to configure it to accept this data, parse and process it, and display it in a meaningful way for you to get the most out of it. In order to help with this, F5 has collaborated with Splunk to create a Splunk app that is available as a free add-on to your Splunk deployment. This F5 Analytics Splunk app can be downloaded from the Splunkbase web-site here:

Note

For your convenience, we have already downloaded this Splunk app onto the Windows jump box, so we can just go ahead and install it within our Splunk instance.
