Abstract:
The disclosed embodiments provide a system that processes network data. During operation, the system obtains, at a remote capture agent, a first protocol classification for a first packet flow captured by the remote capture agent. Next, the system uses configuration information associated with the first protocol classification to build a first event stream from the first packet flow at the remote capture agent, wherein the first event stream comprises time-series event data generated from network packets in the first packet flow based on the first protocol classification. The system then transmits the first event stream over a network for subsequent storage and processing of the first event stream by one or more components on the network.
Abstract:
The disclosed embodiments provide a system that facilitates the processing of network data. During operation, the system causes for display a graphical user interface (GUI) for configuring the generation of time-series event data from network packets captured by one or more remote capture agents. Next, the system causes for display, in the GUI, a first set of user-interface elements containing a set of statistics associated with one or more event streams that comprise the time-series event data. The system then causes for display, in the GUI, one or more graphs comprising one or more values from the set of statistics. Finally, the system causes for display, in the GUI, a value of a statistic from the set of statistics based on a position of a cursor over the one or more graphs.

During operation, the system causes for display a graphical user interface (GUI) for obtaining configuration information for configuring the generation of time-series event data from network packets captured by one or more remote capture agents. Next, the system causes for display, in the GUI, a first set of user-interface elements comprising event stream information for one or more ephemeral event streams used to temporarily generate the time-series event data from the network packets. The system then causes for display, in the GUI, a mechanism for navigating between the event stream information and creation information for one or more creators of the one or more ephemeral event streams.
Abstract:
The disclosed embodiments provide a system for extracting custom content from network packets. During operation, the system receives a stream of packets. The system then parses packets in the stream to determine a protocol for each packet. Next, the system applies a custom-content-extraction rule to each packet associated with a target protocol to obtain the extracted content. Then, the system stores the extracted content in events in a data store to facilitate subsequent queries involving the extracted content.

Next, the system provides, in the GUI, a first set of user-interface elements for including one or more event attributes in the time-series event data of an event stream associated with a protocol classification of the network packets. The system then includes the one or more event attributes specified through the first set of user-interface elements in the configuration information.

Abstract:
Systems and methods are described to determine relationships between one or more components of an isolated execution environment system based on data obtained from a data intake and query system. Based on the determined relationships, an interactive visualization is generated that indicates the hierarchical relationship of the components. In some cases, to illustrate the relationship between components of the isolated execution environment system, the visualization can include one or more display objects displayed in a subordinate or superior relationship to other display objects. In certain cases, based on an interaction with a display object, the system can generate a query and/or display additional information and/or visualizations based on the results of the query.

Abstract:
The disclosed embodiments provide a system that facilitates the processing of network data. During operation, the system obtains a set of event streams from one or more remote capture agents over one or more networks, wherein the set of event streams comprises time-series event data generated from network packets captured by the one or more remote capture agents. Next, the system causes for display, within a graphical user interface (GUI), a first set of user interface elements, wherein the first set of user interface elements includes event stream information for an event stream in the set of event streams and a first graph of a metric associated with the time-series event data in the event stream. The system then updates the first graph in real-time with the time-series event data from the one or more remote capture agents.
