• Author: Cameron Just
• Version: 1.1.7
• Splunkbase URL: n/a
• Source type(s): n/a
• Has index-time operations: No
• Input requirements: None
• Supported product(s): Search Heads

On installation you will need to go to the apps setup page and enter your iphub.info API key. They offer a free APIs key for up to 1000 requests/day.

Once setup just run any search which contains IP addresses and feed them into the custom search command.

Usage:

<search command with ip address> | iphub field=[field_name_with_ip_address]

Example:

| makeresults count=10 | eval dest_ip = if((random()%3) == 1, "8.8.8.8", "4.4.4.4") | iphub field=dest_ip

/opt/splunk/bin/splunk clean kvstore -app TA-iphub -collection iphub_cache

Setup pages use a ridiculous number of files so make sure you edit them all when making changes. This is the most painful part of the whole app creation. Good luck!!!

• bin/iphub_setup_handler.py - Writes conf files to local/iphub.conf and stores the API key in the password store
• default/restmap.conf - Defines the Splunk REST endpoints related to configurations
• default/data/ui/views/setup_page.xml - Renders the form for entering setup config in the web GUI
• appserver/static/setup_page.css - Make config page pretty
• appserver/static/setup_page.js - Javascript which pulls the existing app config from Splunk via a call to Splunk REST endpoints
• default/web.conf - Allows the setup endpoints to be visible externally so the javascript on the configuration page can poll the API for previously configred settings

The search commands that actually does all the useful things use less files

• default/commands.conf - Tells Splunk about the search command
• bin/iphub.py - Runs the search command

If things arenot working with setup pages make sure you have a default/iphub.conf as there are issues with unconfigured apps.
