Splunk Search

How to write a search to find the count and group linkdown traps based on interface?

Dear All,

I am new to Splunk and got a request to create dashboard on Splunk. Criteria is to collect/group linkdown traps and need to have a count based on interface.

So example output needs to be like

Host --- Interface --- Count

Right now I am able to get Host --Count, but need to edit the search such that I get a count based on Interface and not host. Hope this is clear.

Kind Regards

Try this :

<your search> |stats count,latest(Host) as Host by Interface

This can be modified to your final requirement

Happy Splunking!

Just replace latest(host) by values(host) to display all hosts in case there are multiple values
