Some useful query examples here.

Log Query examples

Examples that filter on IP address

• Return log lines that are not within a range of IPv4 addresses:

  logql Copy

  {job_name="myapp"} != ip("192.168.4.5-192.168.4.20")

• This example matches log lines with all IPv4 subnet values 192.168.4.5/16 except IP address 192.168.4.2:

  logql Copy

  {job_name="myapp"}
  	| logfmt
  	| addr = ip("192.168.4.5/16")
  	| addr != ip("192.168.4.2")

Examples that aid in security evaluation

• Extract the user and IP address of failed logins from Linux /var/log/secure

  logql Copy

  {job="security"} 
      |~ "Invalid user.*"
      | regexp "(^(?P<user>\\S+ {1,2}){8})"
      | regexp "(^(?P<ip>\\S+ {1,2}){10})"
      | line_format "IP = {{.ip}}\tUSER = {{.user}}"

• Get successful logins from Linux /var/log/secure

  logql Copy

  {job="security"}
      != "grafana_com"
      |= "session opened"
      != "sudo: "
      |regexp "(^(?P<user>\\S+ {1,2}){11})"
      | line_format "USER = {{.user}}"

Metrics Query examples

• Return the per-second rate of all non-timeout errors within the last minutes per host for the MySQL job, and only include errors whose duration is above ten seconds.

  Copy

  sum by (host) (rate({job="mysql"}
      |= "error" != "timeout"
      | json
      | duration > 10s [1m]))
