      Hi,
      I use PFSENSE 2.5.1

      I am working on the normalization of PFSENSE logs with Logpoint
      Where can I find the documentation for the charon log format?

      Here is an excerpt below:

        The logs are straight from Strongswan so maybe:
        https://wiki.strongswan.org/projects/strongswan/wiki/Loggerconfiguration

        Though I don't see any specifics there. There are existing log parsers for strongswan though as it's widely used. You might look at those.
