Hi Hiep,
Unfortunately this is not possible today nor in the roadmap. The easiest
thing that comes to mind is a two-steps kind of export: you export from
pmacct into a script, running local, that enriche

DNS lookups will effectively rate limit flow export, though, even if you're
hitting a cache. Do it after the fact in your presentation layer with a
cache, don't do it at the collection level, because you'll also have to
store it. I dunno what your flow volume is, but this is generally a bad
idea. Y
When aggregating on src_host and dst_host, the outputs are IP addresses. Is it
possible to also get DNS equivalent? Can pmacct perform a reverse DNS lookup
and output it along with the IP addresses?
If not, is there a workaround involving the 'networks_file' option where both
