How to decode netflow_elements Key Values pair?

pkarpushin — Fri, 26 Oct 2018 08:48:48 GMT

I have configured splunk stream app to collect netflow data from network.
Incoming data is being collected and indexed well, however some fields in search output are shown as below:

input_snmpidx:   6  
netflow_elements:   [   [-] 
         UNKNOWN : 0ab132f5 
         UNKNOWN : 0ab1320b 
         UNKNOWN : 9f99 
         UNKNOWN : 00a1 
         UNKNOWN : 02   
         UNKNOWN : 07e9 
    ]

Netflow exporter device is Cisco ASA Version 8.4(4)1.
I need to know an approach how to display these fields in a correct way.

Hi, did you manage to decode these values? I have the same problem with Cisco High Speed Logging.

Thanks!

Hi @pkarpushin ,

Did you find a solution to this issue? I am facing the exactly same issue in my environment. I tried following THIS Splunk doc, but it didn't work.

Let me know if you have any leads on this.
