NAME
     flow-import -- Import flows into flow-tools from other NetFlow packages.

SYNOPSIS
     flow-import  [-h]	 [-b  big|little]   [-d  debug_level]	[-f format]  [-m
     mask_fields]  [-V pdu_version]  [-z z_level]

DESCRIPTION
     The flow-import utility will convert data from cflowd and ASCII  CSV  files
     into flow-tools format.

OPTIONS
     -b big|little
	       Byte order of output.

     -d debug_level
	       Enable debugging.

     -f format Export format.  Supported formats are:

       0 cflowd
       2 ASCII CSV
       3 Cisco NFCollector

     -h        Display help.

     -m mask_fields
	       Select  fields  for cflowd and ASCII formats.  The mask_fields is
	       built from a bitwise OR of the following:

	       The default value is all fields applicable to the pdu_version.

     -z z_levelConfigure compression level to  z_level.  0 is disabled (no  com-
	       pression), 9 is highest compression.

EXAMPLES
     Convert  the  cflowd file flows.cflowd to the flow-tools file flows.  Store
     as Version 5 with compression level 5.

       flow-import -V5 -z5 -f0 < flows.cflowd > flows

EXAMPLES
     Convert the ASCII CSV data in flows.ascii to flow-tools format.  The  ASCII
     data  must  include  all fields represented by 0xFF31EF in the order listed
     above.  Store as Version 5 with no compression.

       flow-import -z0 -f2 -m0xFF31EF < flows.ascii > flows

BUGS
     The pcap format is a hack.
