Hi All,

How do we list out the fields in tabular format..
Eg:

hostname  action  
windows     allowed
                        deny
                        accept

---------------->  
hostname    action

windows    allowed
windows    deny
windows    accept

in this way I need a search in tabular format 

Thanks..

Hi @AL3Z,

sorry but I don't understand: do you want the first or the second?

anyway, for the first, you need something like this:

<your_search>
| stats values(action) AS action BY host

in the second you have

<your_search>
| stats count BY host action
| fields - count

if you also want the count it's a little more complicated:

<your_search>
| stats count BY host action
| eval column=action."|".count
| stats values(column) AS column BY host

Ciao.
