Chapter 1. The Splunk Interface

This chapter will walk you through the most common elements in the Splunk interface, and will touch upon concepts that are covered in greater detail in later chapters. You may want to dive right into search, but an overview of the user interface elements might save you some frustration later. We will walk through:

• A detailed explanation of the search interface widgets

• A quick overview of the admin interface
