SYNOPSIS

9       flow-split  [-gGhn]   [-b  big|little]   [-C comment]  [-d debug_level]
10       [-N nflows]  [-o outfile_basename]  [-T nseconds]  [-z z_level]

DESCRIPTION

13       The flow-split utility will split a flow file into smaller files  based
14       on the the number of flows or the ammount of time that has passed.
15

OPTIONS

17       -b big|little
18                 Byte order of output.
19
20       -C Comment
21                 Add a comment.
22
23       -d debug_level
24                 Enable debugging.
25
26       -g        Split on source tag.
27
28       -G        Split on destination tag.
29
30       -h        Display help.
31
32       -n        Use symbols for tag field in filename.
33
34       -N nflows Split after processing nflows.
35
36       -o outfile_basename
37                 The basename of the resulting files.
38
39       -T nsecond
40                 Split after processing an interval of nseconds flows.
41
42       -z z_level
43                 Configure  compression  level to  z_level.  0 is disabled (no
44                 compression), 9 is highest compression.

EXAMPLES

47       Create 1 minute flow files from the flow archive in /flows/krc4.  Store
48       the results in /flows/krc4.split
49
50         flow-cat /flows/krc4 | flow-split -T60 -o /flows/krc4.split/1min.
