Splunk Search

Lookup full text of Cisco event and display in new window?

MikeyG
Explorer

I have a search time field extraction for CISCO system messages named MsgClassID. I uploaded from Manager a CISCOevt_codes.csv table. Given that the table format looks like this:

   error_code,event_desc,log_level,log_level_desc
   101001,(Primary) Failover cable OK,1,alert

I would like to do a discretionary lookup from the MsgClassID field pulldown and using the value of MsgClassID against error_code, I would like to return the full discription for the event in a new window.

Haven't been able to find any examples ... Is it possible to do ?

Sure. That sounds like you want a basic "workflow action" (what used to be simply called "field action"):
