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 filter, 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.
