Hi

i want to make a chart that shows real time packet loss percentage of gateways  but there are two problem

1.the firewall sends logs only when packet loss  occurring therefor in line-chart there is no correct value for zero packet loss since line match two non zero points

2. i want to show all five gateway in single chart with different colors

here is what i search and get...chart.jpg

Hi @Depressedadmin ,

For both of your questions, you can use the below answer.

<your base query>
|timechart span=1s count(Loss) as Loss by GATEWAY

This will show all 5 gateway in different colors and it will show the count 0 if it is pocket loss.

PS: Do not select All time until unless it is required and with timechart you can retrieve only 10000 rows at a time, so choose the time wisely else increase the span to 1m or 1h or 1d.

Hi @Depressedadmin ,

to make it looks like a line, please go to Format-> select the second one in the Null values. This will help to plot the line when it is null values.
