Original Flow Data
Original Flow Data Converter Service​
This page allows you to provide mapping between flow data elements and their corresponding key names in key-value pairs in syslog or JSON output.
There is one mapping file in this service: Custom IPFIX Information Elements.
It allows you to specify key names for custom enterprise fields in IPFIX, as well as override standard IPFIX elements names. This CSV file has the following format:
PEN, IE ID, Format, Name, Description
Where:
PEN – IPFIX Private Enterprise number, e.g. for Netscaler it is 5951
IE ID – IPFIX Information Element ID
Format – one of the values specified in the table below
Name – key name for this IPFIX element
Description – optional description
