Hi,

I am tring to enable flow and netflow logging in suricata.

I have done this config:
- eve-log:
enabled: yes
type: file #file|syslog|unix_dgram|unix_stream
filename: eve.json
# the following are valid when type: syslog above
#identity: "suricata"
#facility: local5
#level: Info ## possible levels: Emergency, Alert, Critical,
## Error, Warning, Notice, Info, Debug
types:
- alert
- http:
extended: yes # enable this for extended logging information
# custom allows additional http fields to be included in eve-log
# the example below adds three additional fields when uncommented
#custom: [Accept-Encoding, Accept-Language, Authorization]
- dns
- tls:
extended: yes # enable this for extended logging information
- files:
force-magic: yes # force logging magic on all logged files
force-md5: yes # force logging of md5 checksums
#- drop
- ssh
- smtp
- flow
- netflow

But it seems that flow and netflow are not working.

30/1/2015 -- 15:26:36 - <Warning> - [ERRCODE: SC_ERR_INVALID_ARGUMENT(13)] - No output module named eve-log.flow, ignoring
30/1/2015 -- 15:26:36 - <Warning> - [ERRCODE: SC_ERR_INVALID_ARGUMENT(13)] - No output module named eve-log.netflow, ignoring

Could you please help me on this?
Thanks a lot!

John

Hi John,

This question is probably better suited for the Suricata mailing list:

Both are part of the 2.1 series, currently in beta. Security Onion has

Thank you so much Victor, Doug!
Extremely fast and sharp!

So I have to wait.
Just to know, is there any release date for that?

Take care

John
