Which method in the Field Extractor would extract the port number from the following event? |

10/20/2022 - 125.24.20.1 ++++ port 54 - user: admin <web error>

Delimiter

rex command
rex command
The Field Extractor tool cannot extract regular expressions.
The Field Extractor tool cannot extract regular expressions.
Regular expression
Regular expression
Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

The rex command allows you to extract fields from events using regular expressions. You can use the rex command to specify a named group that matches the port number in the event. For example:

rex '\+\+\+\+port (?\d+)'

This will create a field called port with the value 54 for the event.

The delimiter method is not suitable for this event because there is no consistent delimiter between the fields. The regular expression method is not a valid option for the Field Extractor tool. The Field Extractor tool can extract regular expressions, but it is not a method by itself.

The macro weekly sales (2) contains the search string:

index=games | eval ProductSales = $Price$ * $AmountSold$

Which of the following will return results?

'weekly sales (3)'
'weekly sales (3)'
'weekly_sales($3.995, $108)'
'weekly_sales($3.995, $108)'
'weekly_sales (3.99, 10)'
'weekly_sales (3.99, 10)'
'weekly sales (3.99, 10)'
'weekly sales (3.99, 10)'
Suggested answer: C

Explanation:

To use a search macro in a search string, you need to place a back tick character (`) before and after the macro name1. You also need to use the same number of arguments as defined in the macro2. The macro weekly sales (2) has two arguments: Price and AmountSold. Therefore, you need to provide two values for these arguments when you call the macro.

The option A is incorrect because it uses parentheses instead of back ticks around the macro name. The option B is incorrect because it uses underscores instead of spaces in the macro name. The option D is incorrect because it uses spaces instead of commas to separate the argument values.

Which search string would only return results for an event type called success ful_purchases?

tag=success ful_purchases
tag=success ful_purchases
Event Type:: successful purchases
Event Type:: successful purchases
successful_purchases
successful_purchases
event type---success ful_purchases
event type---success ful_purchases
Suggested answer: C

Explanation:

This is because event types are added to events as a field named eventtype, and you can use this field as a search term to find events that match a specific event type. For example, eventtype=successful_purchases returns all events that have been categorized as successful purchases by the event type definition. The other options are incorrect because they either use a different field name (tag), a different syntax (Event Type:: or event type---), or have a typo (success ful_purchases).You can learn more about how to use event types in searches from the Splunk documentation1.

The macro weekly_sales (2) contains the search string:

index---games I eval Product Sales = $price$ $AmountS01d$

Which of the following will return results?

'weekly_sales(3.99, 10) '
'weekly_sales(3.99, 10) '
'weekly_sales($3.99$, $10$)
'weekly_sales($3.99$, $10$)
'weekly_sales (3.99, 10)
'weekly_sales (3.99, 10)
'weekly_sales(3)
'weekly_sales(3)
Suggested answer: C

Explanation:

The correct answer is C. 'weekly_sales (3.99, 10)'. This is because search macros accept arguments without quotation marks or dollar signs, and the number of arguments must match the number of parameters defined in the macro. The other options are incorrect because they either use quotation marks or dollar signs around the arguments, or they provide a different number of arguments than the macro expects. You can learn more about how to use search macros in searches from the Splunk documentation1.

When creating a data model, which root dataset requires at least one constraint?

Root transaction dataset
Root transaction dataset
Root event dataset
Root event dataset
Root child dataset
Root child dataset
Root search dataset
Root search dataset
Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

The correct answer is B. Root event dataset. This is because root event datasets are defined by a constraint that filters out events that are not relevant to the dataset. A constraint for a root event dataset is a simple search that returns a fairly wide range of data, such as sourcetype=access_combined. Without a constraint, a root event dataset would include all the events in the index, which is not useful for data modeling. You can learn more about how to design data models and add root event datasets from the Splunk documentation1. The other options are incorrect because root transaction datasets and root search datasets have different ways of defining their datasets, such as transaction definitions or complex searches, and root child datasets are not a valid type of root dataset.

Which of the following statements describes an event type?

A log level measurement: info, warn, error.
A log level measurement: info, warn, error.
A knowledge object that is applied before fields are extracted.
A knowledge object that is applied before fields are extracted.
A field for categorizing events based on a search string.
A field for categorizing events based on a search string.
Either a log, a metric, or a trace.
Either a log, a metric, or a trace.
Suggested answer: C

Explanation:

This is because an event type is a knowledge object that assigns a user-defined name to a set of events that match a specific search criteria. For example, you can create an event type named successful_purchase for events that have sourcetype=access_combined, status=200, and action=purchase. Then, you can use eventtype=successful_purchase as a search term to find those events. You can also use event types to create alerts, reports, and dashboards.You can learn more about event types from the Splunk documentation1. The other options are incorrect because they do not describe what an event type is. A log level measurement is a field that indicates the severity of an event, such as info, warn, or error. A knowledge object that is applied before fields are extracted is a source type, which identifies the format and structure of the data. Either a log, a metric, or a trace is a type of data that Splunk can ingest and analyze, but not an event type.

What type of command is eval?

Streaming in some modes
Streaming in some modes
Report generating
Report generating
Distributable streaming
Distributable streaming
Centralized streaming
Centralized streaming
Suggested answer: C

Explanation:

The correct answer is C. Distributable streaming. This is because the eval command is a type of command that can run on the indexers before the results are sent to the search head. This reduces the amount of data that needs to be transferred and improves the search performance. Distributable streaming commands can operate on each event or result individually, without depending on other events or results. You can learn more about the types of commands and how they affect search performance from the Splunk documentation1.

Which of the following is a feature of the Pivot tool?

Creates lookups without using SPL.
Creates lookups without using SPL.
Data Models are not required.
Data Models are not required.
Creates reports without using SPL
Creates reports without using SPL
Datasets are not required.
Datasets are not required.
Suggested answer: C

Explanation:

The correct answer is C. Creates reports without using SPL. This is because the Pivot tool is a feature of Splunk that allows you to report on a specific data set without using the Splunk Search Processing Language (SPL). You can use a drag-and-drop interface to design and generate pivots that present different aspects of your data in the form of tables, charts, and other visualizations. You can learn more about the Pivot tool from the Splunk documentation1 or watch a video tutorial2. The other options are incorrect because they do not describe the features of the Pivot tool. The Pivot tool requires data models and datasets to define the data that you want to work with. Data models and datasets are designed by the knowledge managers in your organization. You can learn more about data models and datasets from the Splunk documentation3. The Pivot tool does not create lookups, which are tables that match field values to other field values. You can create lookups using SPL or the Lookup Editor. You can learn more about lookups from the Splunk documentation.

When used with the timechart command, which value of the limit argument returns all values?

limit=*
limit=*
limit=all
limit=all
limit=none
limit=none
limit=0
limit=0
Suggested answer: D

Explanation:

The correct answer is D. limit=0. This is because the limit argument specifies the maximum number of series to display in the chart. If you set limit=0, no series filtering occurs and all values are returned. You can learn more about the limit argument and how it works with the agg argument from the Splunk documentation1. The other options are incorrect because they are not valid values for the limit argument. The limit argument expects an integer value, not a string or a wildcard. You can learn more about the syntax and usage of the timechart command from the Splunk documentation23.
