Hi socverne,
The docs of the apps https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/3435/#/details tell you this:
The searches rely on tools included in Splunk platform to perform anomaly detection, such as the URL toolbox to detect Shannon entropy in URLs
So you need to install https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/2734/ to be able to use the macro.
BUT, and some greeting to the BOTS 2019 Team here ;), be aware that this macro returns wrong 2nd level domains for some URL's!
The only way to get around this is to actually use a regex and get the 2nd level domains this way. I ended up with this regex to get the correct 2nd level domains:
(?<my2ndLevelDomain>[^.]+)\.(?:(?:com|net|org|edu|gov|asn|id|csiro|)\.au|co\.(?:bb|ck|cr|in|id|il|jp|nz|za|kr|th|uk)|[\w\s]{2,})$
Hope this helps ...
cheers, MuS
PS: @eliasit, yes you still can install the app on Splunk 7.2.x and use it with the above mentioned issues/problems 😉
