W3C Extended Log File Format

Description

A text-based log format similar to CEF (Common Event Format), but provides an extended list of fields. It can be customized to log only relevant data and omit unwanted fields. Since it is a standard format, most log analysis tools can parse it out of the box.

The W3C format is one of the many log formats that NXLog Agent supports. NXLog Agent can parse the W3C Extended Log File Format, including Microsoft IIS and Zeek logs, using the W3C extension.
