NAME
Fwctl::Report - Generates reports from fwctllog output.
SYNOPSIS
use Fwctl::Report;
my $report = new Fwctl::Report( options ... );
my $src_alias_sum = $report->src_alias_summary_report;
foreach my $r ( @$src_alias_sum ) {
print $r->{host_ip}, " = ", $r->{count}, "\n";
}
DESCRIPTION
The Fwctl::Report(3) module can be used to generate various reports from the output of the fwctllog program.
This module generates two kinds of report summary
and <report>. The summary compiles the number of occurence for an item (source, destination, service, etc.). The report methods will returns all the log entry that shares the same key ( source, destination, service, etc.)
CREATING A NEW REPORT OBJECT
Ex. my $report = new Fwctl::Report( start => 'yesterday',
period => '1 day',
files => [ 'log' ] );
PARAMETERS
The new
method accepts the following parameter :
- files
-
Specifies the file from which to read the fwctllog output. It is an array of file handle or file names. If this parameter is not specified the records will be read from STDIN.
- start
-
Sets the start of the report's period. If the Date::Manip(3) module is installed, you can use any format that this module can parse. If that module is'nt installed you must use the following format YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS or any meaningful subset of that format.
If this option is not used, the report will start with the first record.
- end
-
Sets the end of the report's period. If the Date::Manip(3) module is installed, you can use any format that this module can parse. If that module is'nt installed you must use the following format YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS or any meaningful subset of that format.
If this option is not used, the report will end with the last record.
- period
-
Sets the length of the report's period. This length is interpreted relative to the report's start. This option has priority over the end option.
If you have the Date::Manip module installed, you can use any format that this module can parse. If that module isn't available, you can use a subset of the following format X weeks X days X hours X mins X secs.
- threshold
-
This option will removed records identical in protocol, destination ports, source addresses and destination addressesses that appears in the time window specified by the threshold parameters. Defaults is 120 (2 minutes). Use 0 to generates reports for all the packets.
- limit
-
This parameter can be used to restrict the records over which the report is generated. It is an expression which will be used to select a subset of all the records. You can use the following fields : src_ip, dst_ip, src_host, dst_host, action, device, src_port, dst_port, src_serv, dst_serv, proto, proto_name, and the following operator =, !=, <, >, <=, >=, /regex/, /regex/i. Those operators have the same meaning as in perl. You can also use parentheses and the following logic operator : or, and, not .
METHODS
