NAME
flow-rptfmt -- Format the output of flow-report in ASCII or HTML SYNOPSIS
flow-rptfmt [-hHnp] [-a alarm_time] [-f format] [-F fields] [-m max_lines] [-s sort_field] DESCRIPTION
The flow-rptfmt utility processes the CSV output of flow-report into formatted ASCII or HTML. Sorting, maximum display lines, field fil- ter, header display, and name substitution are supported during post processing. Additionally an alarm can be set for use in CGI scripts to limit the CPU time of formatting. OPTIONS
-a alarm_time Exit after alarm_time seconds. -f ascii|html Set output format. Defaults to ASCII. -F display_fields Limit columns to display_fields -h Help. -H Display header information. -m max_lines Limit rows to max_lines. -n Enable symbol table lookups. -p Display in percent total form. -s sort_field Sort on sort_field. Prepend with + for ascending, - for descending sort. EXAMPLES
Format the output of daily-ip-protocol.txt in ASCII. Display the ip-protocol and octets fields in percent total format with symbols. Limit output to top 5 sorted by octets. cat daily-ip-protocol.txt | flow-rptfmt -fascii -Fip-protocol,octets -p -n -m5 BUGS
Sorting could be faster. Percent totals could be faster. May not work with flow-report prior to 0.68. AUTHOR
