How to sum two fields ?

Hello,

How can i sum fields to have the total in a new field ?
For example, i have a field called (BytesReceivedPerSec) and i would have the sum of this field for all the event (in realtime)

I tried accum BytesReceivedPersec AS bytesrcvdtotal but i doesn't do a total sum of all the bytes received.

Have you an idea ?

Thanks

Thank you very much 🙂

It works perfectly

my search exactly :

host=hp-dev index="main"| stats sum(BytesReceivedPersec) AS octets_recus sum(BytesSentPersec) AS octets_envoyes | eval octets_recus_Mo=octets_recus / 1000000 | eval octets_envoyes_Mo=octets_envoyes / 1000000
