Explanation

In Splunk, the order of operations for Boolean logic in the where command follows this sequence: Parentheses: Operations inside parentheses are evaluated first. NOT: The NOT operator is evaluated after parentheses. AND: The AND operator is evaluated next. OR: Finally, the OR operator is evaluated last. This order ensures that expressions within parentheses are given priority, followed by negations (NOT), conjunctions (AND), and finally disjunctions (OR).
