This integration sniffs network packets on a host and dissects known protocols.

Monitoring your network traffic is critical to gaining observability and securing your environment — ensuring high levels of performance and security. The Network Packet Capture integration captures the network traffic between your application servers, decodes common application layer protocols and records the interesting fields for each transaction.

Supported Protocols

Currently, Network Packet Capture supports the following protocols:

  • ICMP (v4 and v6)
  • DHCP (v4)
  • DNS
  • HTTP
  • AMQP 0.9.1
  • Cassandra
  • Mysql
  • PostgreSQL
  • Redis
  • Thrift-RPC
  • MongoDB
  • Memcache
  • NFS
  • TLS
  • SIP/SDP (beta)

Common protocol options

The following options are available for all protocols:

map_to_ecs

Remap any non-ECS Packetbeat fields in root to their correct ECS fields. This will rename fields that are moved so the fields will not be present at the root of the document and so any rules that depend on the fields will need to be updated.

The legacy behaviour of this option is to not remap to ECS. This behaviour is still the default, but is deprecated and users are encouraged to set this option to true.

ECS remapping may have an impact on workflows that depend on the identity of non-ECS fields, and users should assess their use of these fields before making the change. Users who need to retain data collected with the legacy mappings may need to re-index their older documents. Instructions for doing this are available here. The pipeline used to perform ECS remapping for each data stream can be found in Stack ManagementIngest Pipelines and and searching for "logs-network_traffic compatibility".

The deprecation and retirement timeline for legacy behavior is available here.

enabled

The enabled setting is a boolean setting to enable or disable protocols without having to comment out configuration sections. If set to false, the protocol is disabled.

The default value is true.

ports

Exception: For ICMP the option enabled has to be used instead.

The ports where Network Packet Capture will look to capture traffic for specific protocols. Network Packet Capture installs a BPF filter based on the ports specified in this section. If a packet doesn’t match the filter, very little CPU is required to discard the packet. Network Packet Capture also uses the ports specified here to determine which parser to use for each packet.

monitor_processes

If this option is enabled then network traffic events will be enriched with information about the process associated with the events.

The default value is false.

send_request

If this option is enabled, the raw message of the request (request field) is sent to Elasticsearch. The default is false. This option is useful when you want to index the whole request. Note that for HTTP, the body is not included by default, only the HTTP headers.

send_response

If this option is enabled, the raw message of the response (response field) is sent to Elasticsearch. The default is false. This option is useful when you want to index the whole response. Note that for HTTP, the body is not included by default, only the HTTP headers.

transaction_timeout

The per protocol transaction timeout. Expired transactions will no longer be correlated to incoming responses, but sent to Elasticsearch immediately.

tags

A list of tags that will be sent with the transaction event. This setting is optional.

processors

A list of processors to apply to the data generated by the protocol.

keep_null

If this option is set to true, fields with null values will be published in the output document. By default, keep_null is set to false.

Network Flows

Overall flow information about the network connections on a host.

You can configure Network Packet Capture to collect and report statistics on network flows. A flow is a group of packets sent over the same time period that share common properties, such as the same source and destination address and protocol. You can use this feature to analyze network traffic over specific protocols on your network.

For each flow, Network Packet Capture reports the number of packets and the total number of bytes sent from the source to the destination. Each flow event also contains information about the source and destination hosts, such as their IP address. For bi-directional flows, Network Packet Capture reports statistics for the reverse flow.

Network Packet Capture collects and reports statistics up to and including the transport layer.

Configuration options

You can specify the following options for capturing flows.

enabled

Enables flows support if set to true. Set to false to disable network flows support without having to delete or comment out the flows section. The default value is true.

timeout

Timeout configures the lifetime of a flow. If no packets have been received for a flow within the timeout time window, the flow is killed and reported. The default value is 30s.

period

Configure the reporting interval. All flows are reported at the very same point in time. Periodical reporting can be disabled by setting the value to -1. If disabled, flows are still reported once being timed out. The default value is 10s.

keyword
event.category
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the second level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.category represents the "big buckets" of ECS categories. For example, filtering on event.category:process yields all events relating to process activity. This field is closely related to event.type, which is used as a subcategory. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple categories.

This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the highest level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.kind gives high-level information about what type of information the event contains, without being specific to the contents of the event. For example, values of this field distinguish alert events from metric events. The value of this field can be used to inform how these kinds of events should be handled. They may warrant different retention, different access control, it may also help understand whether the data is coming in at a regular interval or not.
keyword

event.start contains the date when the event started or when the activity was first observed.
date
event.type
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the third level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.type represents a categorization "sub-bucket" that, when used along with the event.category field values, enables filtering events down to a level appropriate for single visualization. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple event types.

Protocols

AMQP

Configuration options

Also see Common protocol options.

max_body_length

The maximum size in bytes of the message displayed in the request or response fields. Messages that are bigger than the specified size are truncated. Use this option to avoid publishing huge messages when send_request or send_response is enabled. The default is 1000 bytes.

parse_headers

If set to true, Network Packet Capture parses the additional arguments specified in the headers field of a message. Those arguments are key-value pairs that specify information such as the content type of the message or the message priority. The default is true.

parse_arguments

If set to true, Network Packet Capture parses the additional arguments specified in AMQP methods. Those arguments are key-value pairs specified by the user and can be of any length. The default is true.

hide_connection_information

If set to false, the connection layer methods of the protocol are also displayed, such as the opening and closing of connections and channels by clients, or the quality of service negotiation. The default is true.

event.start contains the date when the event started or when the activity was first observed.
date
event.type
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the third level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.type represents a categorization "sub-bucket" that, when used along with the event.category field values, enables filtering events down to a level appropriate for single visualization. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple event types.
keyword

keyword
dns.question.name
The name being queried. If the name field contains non-printable characters (below 32 or above 126), those characters should be represented as escaped base 10 integers (\DDD). Back slashes and quotes should be escaped. Tabs, carriage returns, and line feeds should be converted to \t, \r, and \n respectively.
keyword
dns.question.registered_domain
The highest registered domain, stripped of the subdomain. For example, the registered domain for "foo.example.com" is "example.com". This value can be determined precisely with a list like the public suffix list (http://publicsuffix.org). Trying to approximate this by simply taking the last two labels will not work well for TLDs such as "co.uk".
keyword

ip
dns.response_code
The DNS response code.
keyword
dns.type
The type of DNS event captured, query or answer. If your source of DNS events only gives you DNS queries, you should only create dns events of type dns.type:query. If your source of DNS events gives you answers as well, you should create one event per query (optionally as soon as the query is seen). And a second event containing all query details as well as an array of answers.
keyword
ecs.version
ECS version this event conforms to. ecs.version is a required field and must exist in all events. When querying across multiple indices -- which may conform to slightly different ECS versions -- this field lets integrations adjust to the schema version of the events.
keyword
event.category
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the second level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.category represents the "big buckets" of ECS categories.

It's recommended but not required to start the dataset name with the module name, followed by a dot, then the dataset name.
keyword
event.duration
Duration of the event in nanoseconds. If event.start and event.end are known this value should be the difference between the end and start time.
long
event.end
event.end contains the date when the event ended or when the activity was last observed.
date
event.kind
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the highest level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.kind gives high-level information about what type of information the event contains, without being specific to the contents of the event. For example, values of this field distinguish alert events from metric events. The value of this field can be used to inform how these kinds of events should be handled. They may warrant different retention, different access control, it may also help understand whether the data is coming in at a regular interval or not.
keyword
event.module
Name of the module this data is coming from. If your monitoring agent supports the concept of modules or plugins to process events of a given source (e.g. Apache logs), event.module should contain the name of this module.
constant_keyword
event.start
event.start contains the date when the event started or when the activity was first observed.
date
event.type
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the third level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.type represents a categorization "sub-bucket" that, when used along with the event.category field values, enables filtering events down to a level appropriate for single visualization. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple event types.
keyword
flow.final

When mapping events from a network or perimeter-based monitoring context, populate this field from the point of view of the network perimeter, using the values "inbound", "outbound", "internal" or "external". Note that "internal" is not crossing perimeter boundaries, and is meant to describe communication between two hosts within the perimeter. Note also that "external" is meant to describe traffic between two hosts that are external to the perimeter. This could for example be useful for ISPs or VPN service providers.

HTTP

Configuration options

Also see Common protocol options.

hide_keywords

A list of query parameters that Network Packet Capture will automatically censor in the transactions that it saves. The values associated with these parameters are replaced by 'xxxxx'. By default, no changes are made to the HTTP messages.

Network Packet Capture has this option because, unlike SQL traffic, which typically only contains the hashes of the passwords, HTTP traffic may contain sensitive data. To reduce security risks, you can configure this option to avoid sending the contents of certain HTTP POST parameters.

This option replaces query parameters from GET requests and top-level parameters from POST requests. If sensitive data is encoded inside a parameter that you don’t specify here, Network Packet Capture cannot censor it. Also, note that if you configure Network Packet Capture to save the raw request and response fields (see the send_request and the send_response options), sensitive data may be present in those fields.

redact_authorization

When this option is enabled, Network Packet Capture obscures the value of Authorization and Proxy-Authorization HTTP headers, and censors those strings in the response.

You should set this option to true for transactions that use Basic Authentication because they may contain the base64 unencrypted username and password.

send_headers

A list of header names to capture and send to Elasticsearch. These headers are placed under the headers dictionary in the resulting JSON.

send_all_headers

Instead of sending a white list of headers to Elasticsearch, you can send all headers by setting this option to true. The default is false.

redact_headers

A list of headers to redact if present in the HTTP request. This will keep the header field present, but will redact it’s value to show the header’s presence.

include_body_for

The list of content types for which Network Packet Capture exports the full HTTP payload. The HTTP body is available under http.request.body.content and http.response.body.content for these Content-Types.

In addition, if send_response option is enabled, then the HTTP body is exported together with the HTTP headers under response and if send_request enabled, then request contains the entire HTTP message including the body.

In the following example, the HTML attachments of the HTTP responses are exported under the response field and under http.request.body.content or http.response.body.content:

Network Packet Capture.protocols:
- type: http
  ports: [80, 8080]
  send_response: true
  include_body_for: ["text/html"]

decode_body

A boolean flag that controls decoding of HTTP payload. It interprets the Content-Encoding and Transfer-Encoding headers and uncompresses the entity body. Supported encodings are gzip and deflate. This option is only applicable in the cases where the HTTP payload is exported, that is, when one of the include_*_body_for options is specified or a POST request contains url-encoded parameters.

If the Cookie or Set-Cookie headers are sent, this option controls whether they are split into individual values. For example, with this option set, an HTTP response might result in the following JSON:

"response": {
  "code": 200,
  "headers": {
    "connection": "close",
    "content-language": "en",
    "content-type": "text/html; charset=utf-8",
    "date": "Fri, 21 Nov 2014 17:07:34 GMT",
    "server": "gunicorn/19.1.1",
    "set-cookie": {
      "csrftoken": "S9ZuJF8mvIMT5CL4T1Xqn32wkA6ZSeyf",
      "expires": "Fri, 20-Nov-2015 17:07:34 GMT",
      "max-age": "31449600",
      "path": "/"
    },
    "vary": "Cookie, Accept-Language"
  },
  "status_phrase": "OK"
}
  • Note that set-cookie is a map containing the cookie names as keys.

The default is false.

real_ip_header

The header field to extract the real IP from. This setting is useful when you want to capture traffic behind a reverse proxy, but you want to get the geo-location information. If this header is present and contains a valid IP addresses, the information is used for the network.forwarded_ip field.

max_message_size

If an individual HTTP message is larger than this setting (in bytes), it will be trimmed to this size. Unless this value is very small (less than 1.5K), Network Packet Capture is able to still correctly follow the transaction and create an event for it. The default is 10485760 (10 MB).

ecs.version
ECS version this event conforms to. ecs.version is a required field and must exist in all events. When querying across multiple indices -- which may conform to slightly different ECS versions -- this field lets integrations adjust to the schema version of the events.
keyword
event.category
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the second level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.category represents the "big buckets" of ECS categories. For example, filtering on event.category:process yields all events relating to process activity. This field is closely related to event.type, which is used as a subcategory. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple categories.
keyword
event.dataset
Name of the dataset. If an event source publishes more than one type of log or events (e.g. access log, error log), the dataset is used to specify which one the event comes from. It's recommended but not required to start the dataset name with the module name, followed by a dot, then the dataset name.
keyword
event.duration

date
event.kind
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the highest level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.kind gives high-level information about what type of information the event contains, without being specific to the contents of the event. For example, values of this field distinguish alert events from metric events. The value of this field can be used to inform how these kinds of events should be handled. They may warrant different retention, different access control, it may also help understand whether the data is coming in at a regular interval or not.
keyword
event.module
Name of the module this data is coming from. If your monitoring agent supports the concept of modules or plugins to process events of a given source (e.g. Apache logs), event.module should contain the name of this module.
constant_keyword
event.start
event.start contains the date when the event started or when the activity was first observed.
date
event.type
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the third level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.type represents a categorization "sub-bucket" that, when used along with the event.category field values, enables filtering events down to a level appropriate for single visualization. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple event types.
keyword
flow.final
Indicates if event is last event in flow. If final is false, the event reports an intermediate flow state only.
boolean
flow.id
Internal flow ID based on connection meta data and address.
keyword
flow.vlan
VLAN identifier from the 802.1q frame. In case of a multi-tagged frame this field will be an array with the outer tag's VLAN identifier listed first.
long
host.architecture
Operating system architecture.
keyword
host.containerized
If the host is a container.
boolean
host.domain
Name of the domain of which the host is a member. For example, on Windows this could be the host's Active Directory domain or NetBIOS domain name. For Linux this could be the domain of the host's LDAP provider.
keyword
host.hostname
Hostname of the host. It normally contains what the hostname command returns on the host machine.
keyword
host.id
Unique host id. As hostname is not always unique, use values that are meaningful in your environment. Example: The current usage of beat.name.
keyword
host.ip
Host ip addresses.
ip
host.mac
Host mac addresses.
keyword
host.name
Name of the host. It can contain what hostname returns on Unix systems, the fully qualified domain name, or a name specified by the user. The sender decides which value to use.
keyword
host.os.build
OS build information.
keyword
host.os.codename
OS codename, if any.
keyword
host.os.family

text
host.os.platform
Operating system platform (such centos, ubuntu, windows).
keyword
host.os.version

keyword
network.direction
Direction of the network traffic. When mapping events from a host-based monitoring context, populate this field from the host's point of view, using the values "ingress" or "egress". When mapping events from a network or perimeter-based monitoring context, populate this field from the point of view of the network perimeter, using the values "inbound", "outbound", "internal" or "external". Note that "internal" is not crossing perimeter boundaries, and is meant to describe communication between two hosts within the perimeter. Note also that "external" is meant to describe traffic between two hosts that are external to the perimeter. This could for example be useful for ISPs or VPN service providers.

Memcached

Configuration options

Also see Common protocol options.

parseunknown

When this option is enabled, it forces the memcache text protocol parser to accept unknown commands.

The unknown commands MUST NOT contain a data part.

maxvalues

The maximum number of values to store in the message (multi-get). All values will be base64 encoded.

The possible settings for this option are:

  • maxvalue: -1, which stores all values (text based protocol multi-get)
  • maxvalue: 0, which stores no values (default)
  • maxvalue: N, which stores up to N values

maxbytespervalue

The maximum number of bytes to be copied for each value element.

Values will be base64 encoded, so the actual size in the JSON document will be 4 times the value that you specify for maxbytespervalue.

udptransactiontimeout

The transaction timeout in milliseconds. The defaults is 10000 milliseconds.

Quiet messages in UDP binary protocol get responses only if there is an error. The memcache protocol analyzer will wait for the number of milliseconds specified by udptransactiontimeout before publishing quiet messages. Non-quiet messages or quiet requests with an error response are published immediately.

ecs.version
ECS version this event conforms to. ecs.version is a required field and must exist in all events. When querying across multiple indices -- which may conform to slightly different ECS versions -- this field lets integrations adjust to the schema version of the events.
keyword
event.action
The action captured by the event. This describes the information in the event. It is more specific than event.category. Examples are group-add, process-started, file-created. The value is normally defined by the implementer.
keyword
event.category
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the second level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.category represents the "big buckets" of ECS categories. For example, filtering on event.category:process yields all events relating to process activity. This field is closely related to event.type, which is used as a subcategory. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple categories.
keyword
event.dataset
Name of the dataset. If an event source publishes more than one type of log or events (e.g. access log, error log), the dataset is used to specify which one the event comes from. It's recommended but not required to start the dataset name with the module name, followed by a dot, then the dataset name.
keyword
event.duration
Duration of the event in nanoseconds. If event.start and event.end are known this value should be the difference between the end and start time.
long
event.end
event.end contains the date when the event ended or when the activity was last observed.
date
event.kind
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the highest level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.kind gives high-level information about what type of information the event contains, without being specific to the contents of the event. For example, values of this field distinguish alert events from metric events. The value of this field can be used to inform how these kinds of events should be handled. They may warrant different retention, different access control, it may also help understand whether the data is coming in at a regular interval or not.
keyword
event.module
Name of the module this data is coming from. If your monitoring agent supports the concept of modules or plugins to process events of a given source (e.g. Apache logs), event.module should contain the name of this module.
constant_keyword
event.outcome
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the lowest level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.outcome simply denotes whether the event represents a success or a failure from the perspective of the entity that produced the event. Note that when a single transaction is described in multiple events, each event may populate different values of event.outcome, according to their perspective. Also note that in the case of a compound event (a single event that contains multiple logical events), this field should be populated with the value that best captures the overall success or failure from the perspective of the event producer. Further note that not all events will have an associated outcome. For example, this field is generally not populated for metric events, events with event.type:info, or any events for which an outcome does not make logical sense.
keyword
event.start
event.start contains the date when the event started or when the activity was first observed.
date
event.type
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the third level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.type represents a categorization "sub-bucket" that, when used along with the event.category field values, enables filtering events down to a level appropriate for single visualization. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple event types.
keyword
flow.final
Indicates if event is last event in flow. If final is false, the event reports an intermediate flow state only.
boolean
flow.id
Internal flow ID based on connection meta data and address.
keyword
flow.vlan
VLAN identifier from the 802.1q frame. In case of a multi-tagged frame this field will be an array with the outer tag's VLAN identifier listed first.
long
host.architecture
Operating system architecture.
keyword
host.containerized
If the host is a container.
boolean
host.domain

keyword
host.hostname
Hostname of the host. It normally contains what the hostname command returns on the host machine.
keyword
host.id
Unique host id. As hostname is not always unique, use values that are meaningful in your environment. Example: The current usage of beat.name.
keyword
host.ip
Host ip addresses.
ip
host.mac
Host mac addresses.
keyword
host.name
Name of the host. It can contain what hostname returns on Unix systems, the fully qualified domain name, or a name specified by the user. The sender decides which value to use.

MongoDB

Configuration options

The max_docs and max_doc_length settings are useful for limiting the amount of data Network Packet Capture indexes in the response fields.

Also see Common protocol options.

max_docs

The maximum number of documents from the response to index in the response field. The default is 10. You can set this to 0 to index an unlimited number of documents.

Network Packet Capture adds a [...] line at the end to signify that there were additional documents that weren’t saved because of this setting.

max_doc_length

The maximum number of characters in a single document indexed in the response field. The default is 5000. You can set this to 0 to index an unlimited number of characters per document.

If the document is trimmed because of this setting, Network Packet Capture adds the string ... at the end of the document.

Note that limiting documents in this way means that they are no longer correctly formatted JSON objects.

ecs.version
ECS version this event conforms to. ecs.version is a required field and must exist in all events. When querying across multiple indices -- which may conform to slightly different ECS versions -- this field lets integrations adjust to the schema version of the events.
keyword
event.category
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the second level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.category represents the "big buckets" of ECS categories. For example, filtering on event.category:process yields all events relating to process activity. This field is closely related to event.type, which is used as a subcategory. This field is an array.

For example, values of this field distinguish alert events from metric events. The value of this field can be used to inform how these kinds of events should be handled. They may warrant different retention, different access control, it may also help understand whether the data is coming in at a regular interval or not.

event.start contains the date when the event started or when the activity was first observed.
date
event.type
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the third level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.type represents a categorization "sub-bucket" that, when used along with the event.category field values, enables filtering events down to a level appropriate for single visualization. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple event types.

ecs.version
ECS version this event conforms to. ecs.version is a required field and must exist in all events. When querying across multiple indices -- which may conform to slightly different ECS versions -- this field lets integrations adjust to the schema version of the events.
keyword
event.category
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the second level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.category represents the "big buckets" of ECS categories. For example, filtering on event.category:process yields all events relating to process activity. This field is closely related to event.type, which is used as a subcategory. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple categories.
keyword
event.dataset
Name of the dataset. If an event source publishes more than one type of log or events (e.g. access log, error log), the dataset is used to specify which one the event comes from.

This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the highest level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.kind gives high-level information about what type of information the event contains, without being specific to the contents of the event. For example, values of this field distinguish alert events from metric events. The value of this field can be used to inform how these kinds of events should be handled. They may warrant different retention, different access control, it may also help understand whether the data is coming in at a regular interval or not.
keyword
event.module
Name of the module this data is coming from. If your monitoring agent supports the concept of modules or plugins to process events of a given source (e.g. Apache logs), event.module should contain the name of this module.
constant_keyword
event.start
event.start contains the date when the event started or when the activity was first observed.
date
event.type
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the third level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.type represents a categorization "sub-bucket" that, when used along with the event.category field values, enables filtering events down to a level appropriate for single visualization. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple event types.
keyword
flow.final
Indicates if event is last event in flow. If final is false, the event reports an intermediate flow state only.
boolean
flow.id
Internal flow ID based on connection meta data and address.

keyword
host.containerized
If the host is a container.
boolean
host.domain
Name of the domain of which the host is a member. For example, on Windows this could be the host's Active Directory domain or NetBIOS domain name. For Linux this could be the domain of the host's LDAP provider.
keyword
host.hostname

keyword
host.ip
Host ip addresses.
ip
host.mac
Host mac addresses.
keyword
host.name
Name of the host. It can contain what hostname returns on Unix systems, the fully qualified domain name, or a name specified by the user. The sender decides which value to use.
keyword

keyword
host.os.codename
OS codename, if any.
keyword
host.os.family
OS family (such as redhat, debian, freebsd, windows).

Multi-field of host.os.name.
text
host.os.platform
Operating system platform (such centos, ubuntu, windows).
keyword
host.os.version
Operating system version as a raw string.
keyword
host.type
Type of host. For Cloud providers this can be the machine type like t2.medium. If vm, this could be the container, for example, or other information meaningful in your environment.
keyword
method
The command/verb/method of the transaction. For HTTP, this is the method name (GET, POST, PUT, and so on), for SQL this is the verb (SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE, and so on).

network.bytes
Total bytes transferred in both directions. If source.bytes and destination.bytes are known, network.bytes is their sum.
long
network.community_id
A hash of source and destination IPs and ports, as well as the protocol used in a communication. This is a tool-agnostic standard to identify flows. Learn more at https://github.com/corelight/community-id-spec.
keyword
network.direction
Direction of the network traffic. When mapping events from a host-based monitoring context, populate this field from the host's point of view, using the values "ingress" or "egress". When mapping events from a network or perimeter-based monitoring context, populate this field from the point of view of the network perimeter, using the values "inbound", "outbound", "internal" or "external". Note that "internal" is not crossing perimeter boundaries, and is meant to describe communication between two hosts within the perimeter. Note also that "external" is meant to describe traffic between two hosts that are external to the perimeter. This could for example be useful for ISPs or VPN service providers.
keyword
network.forwarded_ip

Redis

Configuration options

Also see Common protocol options.

queue_max_bytes and queue_max_messages

store requests in memory until a response is received. These settings impose a limit on the number of bytes (queue_max_bytes) and number of requests (queue_max_messages) that can be stored. These limits are per-connection. The default is to queue up to 1MB or 20.000 requests per connection, which allows to use request pipelining while at the same time limiting the amount of memory consumed by replication sessions.

ecs.version
ECS version this event conforms to. ecs.version is a required field and must exist in all events. When querying across multiple indices -- which may conform to slightly different ECS versions -- this field lets integrations adjust to the schema version of the events.
keyword
event.action
The action captured by the event. This describes the information in the event. It is more specific than event.category. Examples are group-add, process-started, file-created. The value is normally defined by the implementer.
keyword
event.category
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the second level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.category represents the "big buckets" of ECS categories. For example, filtering on event.category:process yields all events relating to process activity. This field is closely related to event.type, which is used as a subcategory. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple categories.
keyword
event.dataset
Name of the dataset. If an event source publishes more than one type of log or events (e.g. access log, error log), the dataset is used to specify which one the event comes from. It's recommended but not required to start the dataset name with the module name, followed by a dot, then the dataset name.
keyword
event.duration
Duration of the event in nanoseconds. If event.start and event.end are known this value should be the difference between the end and start time.
long
event.end
event.end contains the date when the event ended or when the activity was last observed.
date
event.kind
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the highest level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.kind gives high-level information about what type of information the event contains, without being specific to the contents of the event. For example, values of this field distinguish alert events from metric events. The value of this field can be used to inform how these kinds of events should be handled. They may warrant different retention, different access control, it may also help understand whether the data is coming in at a regular interval or not.
keyword
event.module
Name of the module this data is coming from. If your monitoring agent supports the concept of modules or plugins to process events of a given source (e.g. Apache logs), event.module should contain the name of this module.
constant_keyword
event.outcome
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the lowest level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.outcome simply denotes whether the event represents a success or a failure from the perspective of the entity that produced the event. Note that when a single transaction is described in multiple events, each event may populate different values of event.outcome, according to their perspective. Also note that in the case of a compound event (a single event that contains multiple logical events), this field should be populated with the value that best captures the overall success or failure from the perspective of the event producer. Further note that not all events will have an associated outcome. For example, this field is generally not populated for metric events, events with event.type:info, or any events for which an outcome does not make logical sense.
keyword
event.start
event.start contains the date when the event started or when the activity was first observed.
date
event.type
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the third level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.type represents a categorization "sub-bucket" that, when used along with the event.category field values, enables filtering events down to a level appropriate for single visualization. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple event types.
keyword
flow.final
Indicates if event is last event in flow. If final is false, the event reports an intermediate flow state only.
boolean
flow.id
Internal flow ID based on connection meta data and address.
keyword
flow.vlan
VLAN identifier from the 802.1q frame. In case of a multi-tagged frame this field will be an array with the outer tag's VLAN identifier listed first.
long
host.architecture
Operating system architecture.
keyword
host.containerized
If the host is a container.
boolean
host.domain
Name of the domain of which the host is a member. For example, on Windows this could be the host's Active Directory domain or NetBIOS domain name. For Linux this could be the domain of the host's LDAP provider.
keyword
host.hostname
Hostname of the host. It normally contains what the hostname command returns on the host machine.
keyword
host.id
Unique host id. As hostname is not always unique, use values that are meaningful in your environment. Example: The current usage of beat.name.
keyword
host.ip
Host ip addresses.
ip
host.mac
Host mac addresses.
keyword
host.name
Name of the host. It can contain what hostname returns on Unix systems, the fully qualified domain name, or a name specified by the user. The sender decides which value to use.
keyword
host.os.build
OS build information.
keyword
host.os.codename
OS codename, if any.
keyword
host.os.family
OS family (such as redhat, debian, freebsd, windows).
keyword
host.os.kernel
Operating system kernel version as a raw string.
keyword
host.os.name
Operating system name, without the version.
keyword
host.os.name.text
Multi-field of host.os.name.
text
host.os.platform
Operating system platform (such centos, ubuntu, windows).
keyword
host.os.version
Operating system version as a raw string.
keyword
host.type
Type of host. For Cloud providers this can be the machine type like t2.medium. If vm, this could be the container, for example, or other information meaningful in your environment.
keyword
method
The command/verb/method of the transaction. For HTTP, this is the method name (GET, POST, PUT, and so on), for SQL this is the verb (SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE, and so on).
keyword
network.bytes
Total bytes transferred in both directions. If source.bytes and destination.bytes are known, network.bytes is their sum.
long
network.community_id
A hash of source and destination IPs and ports, as well as the protocol used in a communication. This is a tool-agnostic standard to identify flows. Learn more at https://github.com/corelight/community-id-spec.
keyword
network.direction
Direction of the network traffic. When mapping events from a host-based monitoring context, populate this field from the host's point of view, using the values "ingress" or "egress". When mapping events from a network or perimeter-based monitoring context, populate this field from the point of view of the network perimeter, using the values "inbound", "outbound", "internal" or "external". Note that "internal" is not crossing perimeter boundaries, and is meant to describe communication between two hosts within the perimeter. Note also that "external" is meant to describe traffic between two hosts that are external to the perimeter. This could for example be useful for ISPs or VPN service providers.
keyword
network.forwarded_ip
Host IP address when the source IP address is the proxy.
ip
network.protocol
In the OSI Model this would be the Application Layer protocol. For example, http, dns, or ssh. The field value must be normalized to lowercase for querying.

keyword
observer.name
Custom name of the observer. This is a name that can be given to an observer. This can be helpful for example if multiple firewalls of the same model are used in an organization. If no custom name is needed, the field can be left empty.
keyword

long
ecs.version
ECS version this event conforms to. ecs.version is a required field and must exist in all events. When querying across multiple indices -- which may conform to slightly different ECS versions -- this field lets integrations adjust to the schema version of the events.
keyword
event.action
The action captured by the event. This describes the information in the event. It is more specific than event.category. Examples are group-add, process-started, file-created. The value is normally defined by the implementer.
keyword
event.category
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the second level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.category represents the "big buckets" of ECS categories. For example, filtering on event.category:process yields all events relating to process activity. This field is closely related to event.type, which is used as a subcategory. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple categories.
keyword
event.dataset
Name of the dataset. If an event source publishes more than one type of log or events (e.g. access log, error log), the dataset is used to specify which one the event comes from. It's recommended but not required to start the dataset name with the module name, followed by a dot, then the dataset name.
keyword
event.duration
Duration of the event in nanoseconds. If event.start and event.end are known this value should be the difference between the end and start time.
long
event.end
event.end contains the date when the event ended or when the activity was last observed.
date
event.kind
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the highest level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.kind gives high-level information about what type of information the event contains, without being specific to the contents of the event. For example, values of this field distinguish alert events from metric events. The value of this field can be used to inform how these kinds of events should be handled. They may warrant different retention, different access control, it may also help understand whether the data is coming in at a regular interval or not.
keyword
event.module
Name of the module this data is coming from. If your monitoring agent supports the concept of modules or plugins to process events of a given source (e.g. Apache logs), event.module should contain the name of this module.
constant_keyword
event.original
Raw text message of entire event. Used to demonstrate log integrity or where the full log message (before splitting it up in multiple parts) may be required, e.g. for reindex. This field is not indexed and doc_values are disabled. It cannot be searched, but it can be retrieved from _source. If users wish to override this and index this field, please see Field data types in the Elasticsearch Reference.
keyword
event.outcome
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the lowest level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.outcome simply denotes whether the event represents a success or a failure from the perspective of the entity that produced the event. Note that when a single transaction is described in multiple events, each event may populate different values of event.outcome, according to their perspective. Also note that in the case of a compound event (a single event that contains multiple logical events), this field should be populated with the value that best captures the overall success or failure from the perspective of the event producer. Further note that not all events will have an associated outcome. For example, this field is generally not populated for metric events, events with event.type:info, or any events for which an outcome does not make logical sense.
keyword
event.reason
Reason why this event happened, according to the source. This describes the why of a particular action or outcome captured in the event. Where event.action captures the action from the event, event.reason describes why that action was taken. For example, a web proxy with an event.action which denied the request may also populate event.reason with the reason why (e.g. blocked site).
keyword
event.sequence
Sequence number of the event. The sequence number is a value published by some event sources, to make the exact ordering of events unambiguous, regardless of the timestamp precision.
long
event.start
event.start contains the date when the event started or when the activity was first observed.
date
event.type
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the third level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.type represents a categorization "sub-bucket" that, when used along with the event.category field values, enables filtering events down to a level appropriate for single visualization. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple event types.
keyword
flow.final
Indicates if event is last event in flow. If final is false, the event reports an intermediate flow state only.
boolean
flow.id
Internal flow ID based on connection meta data and address.
keyword
flow.vlan
VLAN identifier from the 802.1q frame. In case of a multi-tagged frame this field will be an array with the outer tag's VLAN identifier listed first.
long
host.architecture

keyword
host.hostname

keyword
host.ip
Host ip addresses.
ip
host.mac

keyword
network.application
When a specific application or service is identified from network connection details (source/dest IPs, ports, certificates, or wire format), this field captures the application's or service's name. For example, the original event identifies the network connection being from a specific web service in a https network connection, like facebook or twitter. The field value must be normalized to lowercase for querying.
keyword
network.bytes
Total bytes transferred in both directions. If source.bytes and destination.bytes are known, network.bytes is their sum.
long
network.community_id

keyword
network.direction
Direction of the network traffic. When mapping events from a host-based monitoring context, populate this field from the host's point of view, using the values "ingress" or "egress". When mapping events from a network or perimeter-based monitoring context, populate this field from the point of view of the network perimeter, using the values "inbound", "outbound", "internal" or "external". Note that "internal" is not crossing perimeter boundaries, and is meant to describe communication between two hosts within the perimeter. Note also that "external" is meant to describe traffic between two hosts that are external to the perimeter. This could for example be useful for ISPs or VPN service providers.

Thrift

Apache Thrift is a communication protocol and RPC framework initially created at Facebook. It is sometimes used in microservices architectures because it provides better performance when compared to the more obvious HTTP/RESTful API choice, while still supporting a wide range of programming languages and frameworks.

Network Packet Capture works based on a copy of the traffic, which means that you get performance management features without having to modify your services in any way and without any latency overhead. Network Packet Capture captures the transactions from the network and indexes them in Elasticsearch so that they can be analyzed and searched.

Network Packet Capture indexes the method, parameters, return value, and exceptions of each Thrift-RPC call. You can search by and create statistics based on any of these fields. Network Packet Capture automatically fills in the status column with either OK or Error, so it’s easy to find the problematic RPC calls. A transaction is put into the Error state if it returned an exception.

Network Packet Capture also indexes the event.duration field so you can get performance analytics and find the slow RPC calls.

Thrift supports multiple transport and protocol types. Currently Network Packet Capture supports the default TSocket transport as well as the TFramed transport. From the protocol point of view, Network Packet Capture currently supports only the default TBinary protocol.

Network Packet Capture also has several configuration options that allow you to get the right balance between visibility, disk usage, and data protection. You can, for example, choose to obfuscate all strings or to store the requests but not the responses, while still capturing the response time for each of the RPC calls. You can also choose to limit the size of strings and lists to a given number of elements, so you can fine tune how much data you want to have stored in Elasticsearch.

The Thrift protocol has several specific configuration options.

Providing the Thrift IDL files to Network Packet Capture is optional. The binary Thrift messages include the called method name and enough structural information to decode the messages without needing the IDL files. However, if you provide the IDL files, Network Packet Capture can also resolve the service name, arguments, and exception names.

Configuration options

Also see Common protocol options.

transport_type

The Thrift transport type. Currently this option accepts the values socket for TSocket, which is the default Thrift transport, and framed for the TFramed Thrift transport. The default is socket.

protocol_type

The Thrift protocol type. Currently the only accepted value is binary for the TBinary protocol, which is the default Thrift protocol.

idl_files

The Thrift interface description language (IDL) files for the service that Network Packet Capture is monitoring. Providing the IDL files is optional, because the Thrift messages contain enough information to decode them without having the IDL files. However, providing the IDL enables Network Packet Capture to include parameter and exception names.

string_max_size

The maximum length for strings in parameters or return values. If a string is longer than this value, the string is automatically truncated to this length. Network Packet Capture adds dots at the end of the string to mark that it was truncated. The default is 200.

collection_max_size

The maximum number of elements in a Thrift list, set, map, or structure. If a collection has more elements than this value, Network Packet Capture captures only the specified number of elements. Network Packet Capture adds a fictive last element ... to the end of the collection to mark that it was truncated. The default is 15.

capture_reply

If this option is set to false, Network Packet Capture decodes the method name from the reply and simply skips the rest of the response message. This setting can be useful for performance, disk usage, or data retention reasons. The default is true.

obfuscate_strings

If this option is set to true, Network Packet Capture replaces all strings found in method parameters, return codes, or exception structures with the "*" string.

drop_after_n_struct_fields

The maximum number of fields that a structure can have before Network Packet Capture ignores the whole transaction. This is a memory protection mechanism (so that Network Packet Capture’s memory doesn’t grow indefinitely), so you would typically set this to a relatively high value. The default is 500.

keyword
event.category
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the second level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.category represents the "big buckets" of ECS categories. For example, filtering on event.category:process yields all events relating to process activity. This field is closely related to event.type, which is used as a subcategory. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple categories.

event.start contains the date when the event started or when the activity was first observed.
date
event.type
This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the third level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.type represents a categorization "sub-bucket" that, when used along with the event.category field values, enables filtering events down to a level appropriate for single visualization. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple event types.

keyword
network.direction
Direction of the network traffic. When mapping events from a host-based monitoring context, populate this field from the host's point of view, using the values "ingress" or "egress". When mapping events from a network or perimeter-based monitoring context, populate this field from the point of view of the network perimeter, using the values "inbound", "outbound", "internal" or "external". Note that "internal" is not crossing perimeter boundaries, and is meant to describe communication between two hosts within the perimeter. Note also that "external" is meant to describe traffic between two hosts that are external to the perimeter. This could for example be useful for ISPs or VPN service providers.

TLS

TLS is a cryptographic protocol that provides secure communications on top of an existing application protocol, like HTTP or MySQL.

Network Packet Capture intercepts the initial handshake in a TLS connection and extracts useful information that helps operators diagnose problems and strengthen the security of their network and systems. It does not decrypt any information from the encapsulated protocol, nor does it reveal any sensitive information such as cryptographic keys. TLS versions 1.0 to 1.3 are supported.

It works by intercepting the client and server "hello" messages, which contain the negotiated parameters for the connection such as cryptographic ciphers and protocol versions. It can also intercept TLS alerts, which are sent by one of the parties to signal a problem with the negotiation, such as an expired certificate or a cryptographic error.

Detailed information that is not defined in ECS is added under the tls.detailed key. The include_detailed_fields configuration flag is used to control whether this information is exported.

The fields under tls.detailed.client_hello contain the algorithms and extensions supported by the client, as well as the maximum TLS version it supports.

Fields under tls.detailed.server_hello contain the final settings for the TLS session: The selected cipher, compression method, TLS version to use and other extensions such as application layer protocol negotiation (ALPN).

Configuration options

The send_certificates and include_detailed_fields settings are useful for limiting the amount of data Network Packet Capture indexes, as multiple certificates are usually exchanged in a single transaction, and those can take a considerable amount of storage.

Also see Common protocol options.

send_certificates

This setting causes information about the certificates presented by the client and server to be included in the detailed fields. The server’s certificate is indexed under tls.detailed.server_certificate and its certification chain under tls.detailed.server_certificate_chain. For the client, the client_certificate and client_certificate_chain fields are used. The default is true.

include_raw_certificates

You can set include_raw_certificates to include the raw certificate chains encoded in PEM format, under the tls.server.certificate_chain and tls.client.certificate_chain fields. The default is false.

include_detailed_fields

Controls whether the TLS fields are added to exported documents. When set to false, only ECS TLS fields are included. exported are included. The default is true.

fingerprints

Defines a list of hash algorithms to calculate the certificate’s fingerprints. Valid values are sha1, sha256 and md5.

The default is to output SHA-1 fingerprints.
