IPFIXCOL2-VIEWER-OUTPUT(7)     IPFIXcol collector     IPFIXCOL2-VIEWER-OUTPUT(7)

NAME
     ipfixcol2-viewer-output - Viewer (output plugin)

DESCRIPTION
     The plugin converts IPFIX Messages into plain text and prints them on stan-
     dard output.

     The  main	goal of the plugin is to show content of received IPFIX Messages
     in human readable form.  Each IPFIX Message is broken down into IPFIX  Sets
     and  each	IPFIX  Set  is	further broken down into (Options) Template/Data
     records and so on. Fields of the Data records are	formatted  according  to
     the  expected data type, if their corresponding Information Element defini-
     tions are known to the collector. Therefore, the output can be also used to
     determine missing Information Element definitions.

     Biflow records and structured data types are also supported  and  appropri-
     ately  formatted.	 Output is not supposed to be further parsed because its
     format can be changed in the future.  However, if you are	interested  into
     processing Data Records, consider using other plugins such as JSON, UniRec,
     etc.

EXAMPLE CONFIGURATION

	    <name>Viewer output</name>
