Hi there,
Thank you in advance!
I used a simple PCAP file to test & inspect the flow event from the log eve.json.
But i noticed there were asymmetry information comparing w/ the same conversation by wireshark.
The output flow-info is as follows and i’m pretty sure that there’s no other flow events related with the same IP pair.
{“timestamp”:“2021-08-27T13:00:49.565747+0800”,“flow_id”:2251211159079321,“in_iface”:“eno1”,“event_type”:“flow”,“src_ip”:“135.192.213.9”,“src_port”:59853,“dest_ip”:“143.41.37.190”,“dest_port”:23,“proto”:“TCP”,“flow”:{“pkts_toserver”:2,“pkts_toclient”:2,“bytes_toserver”:120,“bytes_toclient”:120,“start”:“2021-08-27T13:00:35.952729+0800”,“end”:“2021-08-27T13:00:36.053011+0800”,“age”:1,“state”:“new”,“reason”:“shutdown”,“alerted”:false},“tcp”:{“tcp_flags”:“00”,“tcp_flags_ts”:“00”,“tcp_flags_tc”:“00”}}
And the same conversation by Wireshark is as follows, please notice that the packets counts for both directions are greater then the ones from the above piece of log.
