Hi everyone,

Now I'm working splunk site to site. I have splunk indexer at HQ and splunk forwarder at branch.

I'm testing send data from branch to splunk indexer at HQ.

How can I search for total time splunk indexing data from branch per source="xxxx.log" and bandwidth speed of data transfer between site.

Thanks you for advise.

All events have a field called _indextime which is the time the event was indexed. You can start with a search like this:

... | eval lagSeconds=_indextime - _time | eval bytes=length(_raw)

Now for each event, you have the number of bytes transferred (bytes) and the latency (lagSeconds). You can take it from there.
