Two configuration files exist that control the processing and display of netflow data. Both files are located in conf under the installation directory. The default installation directory is /opt/terapaths-monitoring.
The files are
| Configuration File | Description |
|---|---|
| flowscan.cf | Base file processing and system configuration |
| JKFlow.xml | Site specific subnet and processing configurations |
flowscan.cf
This file specifies the location of the netflow files to be processed and some system wide configurations such as Syslog facilities and the poll frequency to find new netflow files.
| Variable | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
| FlowFileGlob | The location and wildcard of netflow files | /var/flows/flows/ft-v05. |
| ReportClasses | Flowscan modules to use for netflow data processing | JKFlow |
| WaitSeconds | The poll time to wait for new files into that defined in FlowFileGlob | 30 |
| Verbose | 1 | |
| SyslogFacility | The local syslog facility to use for logs | local2 |
# flowscan Configuration Directives ############################################ # FlowFileGlob (REQUIRED) # use this glob (file pattern match) when looking for raw flow files to be # processed, e.g.: FlowFileGlob /var/flows/flows/*ft-v05.* # ReportClasses (REQUIRED) # a comma-seperated list of FlowScan report classes, e.g.: ReportClasses JKFlow # WaitSeconds (OPTIONAL) # This should be <= the "-s" value passed on the command-line to cflowd, e.g.: WaitSeconds 30 # Verbose (OPTIONAL, non-zero = true) Verbose 1 # SyslogFacility (REQUIRED) # defines the syslog facility to use for logging purposes # use STDOUT to not log to syslog SyslogFacility local2
