Windows DNS Analytical and Diagnostic Logs

Splunk Cloud
This app has been archived. Learn more about app archiving.
This app is NOT supported by Splunk. Please read about what that means for you here.
Overview
The Technology Addon for Windows DNS Analytical logs is designed to be used with Windows DNS servers running on Windows Server 2012 R2 and later. Microsoft has documented a new and recommended method for logging DNS requests using "audit and analytical event logging" as described in this TechNet article:

https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn800669.aspx

Analytical logs are written to an event trace log (ETL) and are not able to be read via Splunk's native Windows log monitor. A Powershell script is included that reads the ETL every minute using the Get-WinEvent cmdlet.

**NOTE: There is an issue with the manner in which logging is performed that does not allow for overwriting of the log file while in use. If the max file size is reached or disk becomes full, logging will stop (and, you know, Windows won't be happy either...)
