The submenu in the activity tab as the menu called triggered alerts.
This is the location where all the alerts which are triggered will be logged, which can be useful for
analyzing and checking if the alerts are triggered or not, or even how many alerts are triggered per
day, or like alerts that are triggered by a single route.
You'll be able to see all these alerts under this menu.
Since this is a new installation and there has not been much activity of data ingestion or searching
on this instance.
As of now, we don't have any alerts that are triggered or created on this instance.
And the final tab in the top menu is the help, which can be very resourceful at any stage of Splunk
user.
Let's go through them quickly.
One by one.
The first one.
Is the what's new.
Takes us straight to the documentation site or Splunk, where you can search for any topic related to
Splunk or check for the newer version of Splunk or see what's new with the latest releases.
The second link takes you to the documentation side, where you will have access to the Splunk Enterprise
Documentation, download and step by step guides where you'll be able to search and find answers.
The Documentation.
The one good thing about Splunk is the complete documentation part is kept open.
If you click on tutorials.
I will take you directly to the documentation site where you are complete resource to learn and understand
Splunk.
But the only problem is Splunk is so big it has like probably if you combine all the documents to get
there, it will give you like 3000, 4000 pages of documentation.
Going through them will be a mess.
You get directly into search tutorials where you will have a short tutorial or how to create reports,
charts, dashboard and reaching your data.
We'll be going through all this one by one, but probably in a different order, which will be much
more useful.
Let's see some of the other important links in help menu.
The Splunk answers is one of the most informative and highly active StackOverflow kind website for Splunk.
If you click on that link, it will directly take you to answers to Splunk dot com.
There is a huge number of people constantly asking queries, posting answers to help other members of
the Splunk community.
If you already logged in, you can directly click on ask a question and it will pop a menu.
Whatever the questions, how dumb it is, no issues.
You can probably search before asking a question that if somebody has asked the same question and you'll
find the answer probably 80 to 90% of the time, because the community has been for a very long time
and it is very active.
The last link, I believe is the contact support is the Splunk portal where you log on incident, raise
an incident to Splunk support, which will be through your customer portal and based on the priority,
it will be resolved.
The next link is the URL page, which takes you right back to the documentation.
This is our admin manual.
This is also one of the important manual where you will be able to get the configuration references
for Splunk.
I highly recommend you to download this manual, go through it whenever you have time.
This shows on which page of the Splunk you click the help menu on.
It takes directly all the activities related to that page or the functionalities present in that page,
which gives you a complete picture of how it works or what are the options it has and how you can configure
it.
And and they helped me to the final one.
How about page is the link which shows you the build and details of your Splunk installation and also
the app version.
Since this is the default app, your app version will be same as 6.6.2.
That is a.
Current version, and this is the build version.
