Good Afternoon,

I have made it so far to Browsing Log Files in Bro via the documentation provided under the Quick Start Guide and [Managing Bro with BroControl](https://www.bro.org/sphinx/quickstart/index.html#managing-bro-with-brocontrol). I am now in the **R**** edefining Script Option Variables** section and am trying to understand the documentation regarding adding the statement to local.bro:

 ![](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex011/uploads/zeek/original/1X/953539a898983aa5936f0d272fd5919886f21e55.png)

I browsed out to the below location and tried to insert the above text but don’t know where to insert it. Can this be anywhere in the document? Also, how would you know to look into main.bro at the module notice and derive what needs to be added to local.bro, in this example or others?

Thank you,

Charles

The Quick Start guide is intended to give a (very) quick  
tour of some things you can do with Bro, so don't worry  
if you don't understand why the examples are written the  
way they are.

There is more complete documentation in the "Reference"  
section. For example, the "Notice Framework" document gives  
more background information that will help you understand  
the example in the Quick Start guide.

For documentation about specific Bro scripts, the  
"Bro Package Index" or "Bro Script Index" pages are  
quite useful (these are listed on the table of contents of the  
Bro Manual).
