IPFIXCOL2-TCP-INPUT(7) IPFIXcol collector IPFIXCOL2-TCP-INPUT(7) NAME ipfixcol2-tcp-input - TCP (input plugin) DESCRIPTION The plugin receives IPFIX messages over TCP transport protocol from one or more exporters and pass them into the collector. Multiple instances of the plugin can run concurrently. However, they must listen on different ports or local IP addresses. Unlike UDP, TCP is reliable transport protocol that allows exporters to de- tect connection or disconnection of the collector. Therefore, the issues with templates retransmission and initial period of inability to interpret flow records does not apply here. Received IPFIX messages may be compressed using LZ4 stream compression. The compression is enabled on the exporter and the plugin detects it automati- cally. EXAMPLE CONFIGURATION <input> <name>TCP input</name> <plugin>tcp</plugin> <params> <localPort>4739</localPort> <localIPAddress></localIPAddress> </params> </input> PARAMETERS Mandatory parameters: localPort Local port on which the plugin listens. [default: 4739] localIPAddress Local IPv4/IPv6 address on which the TCP input plugin listens. If the element is left empty, the plugin binds to all available network interfaces. The element can occur multiple times (one IP address per occurrence) to manually select multiple interfaces. [default: empty] NOTES The LZ4 compression uses special format that compatible with ipfixproble <https://github.com/CESNET/ipfixprobe>. AUTHOR LukA!A!
