Explanation
In Splunk, the NOT operator is used to exclude events from your search results. The search index=network NOT StatusCode=200 will return all events in the 'network' index where the StatusCode is not 200. This includes events where the StatusCode field is present and has a value other than 200, as well as events where the StatusCode field is not present at all.
