New to the forum, so be kind.
What format (json??) is the output from suricatasc -c dump-counters and how might one parse the output?
My goal is to be able to select specific counters, such as kernel_packets & kernel_drops and/or any others that will help keep an eye on packet throughput issues for tuning purposes.
I am aware of stats.log, but I’m trying to avoid having to deal with log sizes and log rotation processes. I’m running suricata on a consumer router (Asuswrt Merlin) and trying to minimize impact on disk space associated with logs. The setup is working well in IDS mode!!
