BIDIRECTIONAL LINKING OF EPHEMERAL EVENT STREAMS TO CREATORS OF THE EPHEMERAL EVENT STREAMS
First Claim
1. A method for facilitating the processing of network data, comprising:
- causing for display, on a computer system, 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;
causing 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; and
causing 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 that facilitates the processing of network data. 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.

17. An apparatus, comprising:
-
one or more processors; and memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the apparatus to; cause 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; cause 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; and cause for display, in the GUI, a mechanism for navigating between the first set of user-interface elements and a second set of user-interface elements comprising creation information for one or more creators of the one or more ephemeral event streams. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23)

24. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that when executed by a computer cause the computer to perform a method for facilitating the processing of network data, the method comprising:
-
causing for display, on a computer system, 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; causing 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; and causing for display, in the GUI, a mechanism for navigating between the first set of user-interface elements and a second set of user-interface elements comprising creation information for one or more creators of the one or more ephemeral event streams. - View Dependent Claims (25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)
