Im sorry if you couldn't understand me

I mean I want to do a report that tell me who attack me and which ip, things like that, but I have no idea how to group these events.

You'd need to create fields out of your logs (covered in the tutorial, tl;dr: use the interactive field extractor in splunkweb), and then grab stats on the fields you mention (also covered in the tutorial). If you want to create a search form that only requires you to input an IP number and automatically get charts, tables etc, have a look at the "Build forms" section of the developer manual).

Yeah I did but I can't group those events. Let me see if I can explain better.

I want to see my firewall log (watchguard) and make some search by src_ip or dest_ip and then a report to see how many deny, attack, or error i had.

I saw many apps for firewall but i didn't see one for watchguard firebox

Did you take the Splunk tutorial? It's a great way to get past the "I'm very new to Splunk" phase.

I am not sure I understand the question

If you want statistics then take a look here:

If you want these combined together, perhaps the transaction search cmd
