Re: [pmacct-discussion] amqp_plugin and the stamp_inserted timestamp

2013-10-08 Thread Paolo Lucente
Hi Nathan,

I did try to reproduce your issue but with no luck. Can you say
what capturing method are you using (libpcap, NetFlow, sFlow, or
..?). Is it that all data is mistakenly placed into the previous
timeslot or it is possible you might be effectively receiving
only bits of data belonging to the previous timeslot and bulk of
the data belongs to the current timeslot? I can imagine this can
happen a lot with NetFlow if nfacctd_time_new is set to false,
which is default, or with libpcap and/or sFlow in case buffering
is enabled. Let me know.

Cheers,
Paolo

 Hi all,
 
 I've managed to compile with rabbitmq enabled, and publish data to an

 I have noticed some strange behaviour with the stamp_inserted value.
 When amqp_history is set, the stamp_inserted value is being set to the 
 previous slot rather than the current slot.
 For example, stamp_updated may be 2013-10-04 00:37:11 but stamp_inserted is 
 2013-10-04 00:30:00.
 
 My config for this aggregation is as follows:
 
 ! 5 minutely IP to IP
 aggregate[5m_ipip]: src_host, dst_host
 amqp_routing_key[5m_ipip]: 5m_ipip
 amqp_history[5m_ipip]: 5m
 amqp_time_roundoff[5m_ipip]: m
 amqp_refresh_time[5m_ipip]: 10
 
 I managed to get the expected results by switching lines 194 and 195 of 
 amqp_plugin.c, but would like to confirm that this is the correct fix and 
 that it won't affect anything else?
 
 Thanks again!
 Nathan.

Hi Paolo,

Thanks for your assistance.

Capturing method is NetFlow, and in this case I'm using a Netflow simulator 
(http://www.paessler.com/tools/netflowgenerator), however I have 
nfacctd_time_new set to true.

I compiled using --enable-rabbitmq and --enable-jansson flags.

The first cache purge looks to be correct, it's the subsequent ones that seem 
to have the trouble. Below is the JSON debug output from the console. I started 
the process at approximately 2013-10-09 01:47:00 GMT:
{port_dst: 80, peer_ip_src: 192.168.24.100, port_src: 1000, ip_dst: 
10.0.2.254, ip_src: 10.0.1.1, ip_proto: tcp, stamp_updated: 
2013-10-09 01:50:01, stamp_inserted: 2013-10-09 01:45:00, packets: 0, 
bytes: 137}
{port_dst: 80, peer_ip_src: 192.168.24.100, port_src: 1000, ip_dst:

2013-10-09 01:55:01, stamp_inserted: 2013-10-09 01:45:00, packets: 0,

2013-10-09 02:05:01, stamp_inserted: 2013-10-09 01:55:00, packets: 0,

Complete config is as follows:
debug: true

daemonize: false
nfacctd_port: 9996

nfacctd_disable_checks: true
nfacctd_time_new: true

! AMQP connection details
amqp_host: 127.0.0.1

amqp_passwd: guest
amqp_exchange: pmacct.direct
amqp_exchange_type: direct

plugins: amqp[5m_ipip]

! 5 minutely IP to IP
aggregate[5m_ipip]: src_host, dst_host, src_port, dst_port, proto, peer_src_ip
amqp_routing_key[5m_ipip]: 5m_ipip
amqp_history[5m_ipip]: 5m
amqp_time_roundoff[5m_ipip]: m
amqp_refresh_time[5m_ipip]: 300

Thanks,
Nathan.
