    <title>topic How to graph the rate from firewall logs with only start and end session messages ? in Splunk Search</title>

    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;I have a network rate graph i build from my firewall logs with the timechart command:&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;host=firewall_IP type=traffic | timechart sum(rcvdbyte) &lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;It works fine, except with very long sessions: because the firewall log is not packet-based but session-based, so for those sessions i only have a huge peak at the time of the session end, instead of a continuous line from the start to the end of the session.&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;Is there a way to draw a chart which show a continuous rate between the session start and the end ?&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;The messages (events) contain : session start time, session end time, session ID (unique), duration of session (in end message), cumulative bytes (in end message).&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;thanks&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Bump, have the same question.&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;We try to chart bytes over duration for a dedicated start time.&lt;BR /&gt;
So the bytes have to be uniformley distributed in a time chart from start time + duration (as end time).&lt;/P&gt;</description>
