# Proxedo Network Security

Send Balasys Proxedo Network Security logs to Axoflow, and look up the labels that Axoflow adds to its data.

Proxedo Network Security:
Application-level proxy firewall suite that granularly inspects and controls network traffic at the protocol level.

To onboard such a source to Axoflow, complete the [generic appliance onboarding steps](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/data-sources/appliances/index.md).

## Labels

Axoflow automatically adds the following labels to data collected from this source:

| Analytics label | Message field | value |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `vendor` | [`meta.vendor`](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/reference/message-schema/reference/index.md#meta.vendor) | `balasys` |
| `product` | [`meta.product`](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/reference/message-schema/reference/index.md#meta.product) | `pns` |

You can use the labels as:

- labels in **Customize Graph** on the [Analytics page](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/metrics/analytics/index.md),
- in the **Filter labels** field during [log tapping](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/onboard-hosts/log-tapping/index.md).

You can use the message fields

- in [Flow Processing steps](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/data-management/processing/index.md), for example, in the **Query** field of **Select Messages** steps,
- in AQL expressions in the search bars.

## Sending data to Splunk

When sending the data collected from this source to Splunk, Axoflow uses the following sourcetype and index settings:

| sourcetype | index |
| --- | --- |
| `balasys:pns` | `netfw` |

If the Axoflow classification doesn’t set the source field for the message automatically, and you haven’t set it in a [flow processing step](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/data-management/processing/index.md#set-fields) manually (by setting the `meta.destination.splunk.source` field), AxoRouter automatically sets the source to the [name of the AxoRouter connector](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/reference/message-schema/reference/index.md#meta.connector.name) that received the message (for example, `axorouter-syslog-tcp-514`).
