SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

13       The flow-log2rrd utility processes the STAT lines  generated  by  flow-
14       capture  and  flow-fanout  and converts them into RRD files.  RRD's are
15       stored as  rrd_path/capture|fanout.hostname.srcip.dstip.port.rrd.   The
16       Datastores  are  flows,pkts,lost  representing flows, packets, and lost
17       flows respectively.  Flow-fanout  generates  an  additional  DS  nobufs
18       indicating the number of times a write() failed with ENOBUFS.
