Hello.

Just starting to deal with complex query to splank, there is now a need to make a request that would be deduced from the log ip addresses that connect more than two users.

Is it possible?

Thank you.

You can do this:

sourcetype=your_sourcetype | eventstats dc(user) as dc_user by clientip | where dc_user > 2

hello, example:

*xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx* - *[email protected]* [13/Jul/2014:04:02:27 +0400] "GET /src/?_task=mail&_action=check-recent&_mbox=INBOX&_list=1&_quota=1&_remote=1&_unlock=0&_=1405209744809 HTTP/1.1" 200 260

I need to display ip addresses (name - clientip) in log which was at over 2-3 user email (name in log - user)

Yes it is possible. If you could provide little more details like sample log events, we can help you to write the search.
