A report named "Linux logins" populates a summary index with the search string sourcetype=linux_secure| sitop src_ip user. Which of the following correctly

searches against the summary index for this data?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

When searching against summary data in Splunk, it's common to reference the name of the saved search or report that populated the summary index. The correct search syntax to retrieve data from the summary index populated by a report named 'Linux logins' is index=summary search_name='Linux logins' | top src_ip user (Option B). This syntax uses the search_name field, which holds the name of the saved search or report that generated the summary data, allowing for precise retrieval of the intended summary data.

I agree with Lindsey, A seems like the most appropriate answer as it specifically targets the sourcetype linux_secure.

I disagree, I believe the correct answer is C because it uses stats count to summarize the data by src_ip and user.

I think the answer is A because it directly searches for sourcetype=linux_secure in the summary index.

I'm not sure, but I think maybe C) index=summary search_name="Linux logins" | stats count by src_ip user could also work.
