Splunk Search

How to search users who are logged in from 2 or more IP addresses within a span of 10 minutes?

I am looking to parse apache logs to locate all users who are logged in from two or more IP addresses within a 10 minute time span.

The search I am performing appears not to be taking the timeframe into consideration or is including records with the same user and same IP within a 10 minute timeframe.

user=* clientip=* | iplocation clientip | bucket _time span=10m | stats dc(clientip) as dc_clientip values(clientip) as clientip values(City) as City values(Region) as Region values(Country) as Country by user | where dc_clientip > 1

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi joec90,

you almost got it, stats needs to know that you used timed buckets so you need to add _time to the stats command like this:

 user=* clientip=* | iplocation clientip | bucket _time span=10m | stats dc(clientip) as dc_clientip values(clientip) as clientip values(City) as City values(Region) as Region values(Country) as Country by user, _time | where dc_clientip > 1

hope this helps ...

cheers, MuS
