I'm just gonna guess all of them. Splunk loves throwing curveballs, and this question is like a whole baseball diamond full of 'em.

It could also be that the Typing Queue is blocked, preventing regular expression replacements.

Maybe the events are missing the network tag, that could be the reason.

Whoa, this one's a doodle. I'm betting it's A, B, and D. The private field, missing tags, and that sneaky Fast Mode - classic Splunk shenanigans.

I'm going with A and D. That private knowledge object thing is tricky, and the search mode can definitely mess you up.

Hmm, I think it's gotta be B and D. The network tag is crucial, and Fast Mode can definitely hide those custom fields.
