Why might a search return no events when querying two different Reporting IP values?

When querying for events based on two different Reporting IP values, the use of the correct boolean operator is crucial for the query to yield accurate results. If the wrong boolean operator is used, it could lead to an unintended logical operation that excludes relevant events. For instance, if an "AND" operator is used instead of an "OR" operator, only events that match both Reporting IP values simultaneously would be returned. This is highly unlikely, especially if the two IP addresses belong to different sources or locations. As a result, the query may return no events at all.

On the other hand, if the IP subnets or specific IPs were indeed valid but not structured correctly in the query due to a boolean error, it would further reinforce the likelihood of receiving no results. Thus, understanding how boolean operators affect the logic of queries is key to successfully retrieving the desired event data.
