Splunk Search

Create Multi-Value field based 4 fields

So basically I have some network logs and by base search filters down to source IP, destination IP, destination port, and protocol. I am trying to figure out a way to iterate over all events and group based off the 4-tuple data mentioned above. Below is an image of what I am thinking. You'll notice I added an ID field and I figured that would somehow be the equivalent to  ID+=1 at the end of a loop or something.

The original data is bro logs. If you need a list of all the fields below is a link and the source is the conn.log (the green box on the first page)
