Synopsis
flow-split [ -gGhn ] [ -b big|little ] [ -C comment ] [ -d debug_level ] [ -N nflows ] [ -o outfile_basename ] [ -T nseconds ] [ -z z_level ]
Description
The flow-split utility will split a flow file into smaller files based on the the number of flows or the ammount of time that has passed.
Options
- -b big|little
Byte order of output.
- -C Comment

- -h
Display help.
- -n
Use symbols for tag field in filename.
- -N nflows
Split after processing nflows.
- -o outfile_basename
The basename of the resulting files.
- -T nsecond
Split after processing an interval of nseconds flows.
- -z z_level
Configure compression level to z_level. 0 is disabled (no compression), 9 is highest compression.
Examples
Create 1 minute flow files from the flow archive in /flows/krc4. Store the results in /flows/krc4.split
flow-cat /flows/krc4 | flow-split -T60 -o /flows/krc4.split/1min.
