Date Formats

CEF supports several variations on time and date formats to accurately identify the time an event occurred.  These formats are as follows:

• Milliseconds since January 1, 1970 (integer).This time format supplies an integer with the count in milliseconds from January 1, 1970 to the time the event occurred.
• MMM dd HH:mm:ss.SSS zzz
• MMM dd HH:mm:sss.SSS
• MMM dd HH:mm:ss zzz
• MMM dd HH:mm:ss
• MMM dd yyyy HH:mm:ss.SSS zzz
• MMM dd yyyy HH:mm:ss.SSS
• MMM dd yyyy HH:mm:ss zzz
• MMM dd yyyy HH:mm:ss
