I am a data analyst interested in Security that have been reccently introduced to Splunk that I am learning on my own now. I was wondering how I can monitor any event on the local event Log ? here is what I do :
I go to the local event log after clicking the Monitoring option, then select System. In the input settings I change the app context from Search & Reports to Monitor console. The events looks structured when I am done , but nothing is appearing on the visualisation tab;
How can I have a visualisation of my monitoring. I do not mind monitoring anything else; I just need to see the graph. I guess
What kind of graph is necessary?
Please check how to use STATS, CHART, TIMECHART etc.
ex.
sourcetype="WinEventLog:System"|timechart count by EventCode
