MetaExport uses the Netwitness Export Connector. The NetWitness Export Connector is an input plugin for Logstash, used to export NetWitness Platform meta and routes the data where you want, all in continuous, streaming fashion. Giving you the flexibility to unlock a variety of downstream use cases.

This plugin is installed on Logstash and integrates with NetWitness Platform Decoders. This plugin aggregates meta data from the Decoder and converts it to Logstash JSON object, which can easily integrate with numerous consumers such as Kafka, AWS S3, TCP, Elastic, Syslog receivers and others.

MetaExport uses logstash syslog output plugin to send events to a syslog server. You can send messages compliant with RFC3164 or RFC5424 using either UDP or TCP as the transport protocol.
