Field

Description

DATE

end (index 11)- The date extracted from converting the end integer representing seconds in UTC since the epoch (1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC) to "2006-01-02T15:04:05Z" in YYYY-MM-DD format.

end is the time in Unix seconds, when the last packet of the flow was received within the aggregation interval. This might be up to 60 seconds after the packet was transmitted or received on the network interface.

TIME

end (index 11) - The time extracted from converting the end integer representing seconds in UTC since the epoch (1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC) to "2006-01-02T15:04:05Z" in HH:MM:SS format.

end is the time in Unix seconds, when the last packet of the flow was received within the aggregation interval. This might be up to 60 seconds after the packet was transmitted or received on the network interface.

SYSTEM

AWS Internal

TABLE

AWSVPCFlowLog

COLLECTIONDATETIME

Snare Central’s local date and time of the actual log collection from AWS Kinesis Data Stream in RFC3339Nano format.

CWLDATETIME

AWS CloudWatch Log’s timestamp when it receives the event log from other AWS services in RFC3339Nano format.

DATETIME

end (index 11) - Date and Time extracted from converting the end integer representing seconds in UTC since the epoch (1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC) to RFC3339Nano format.

end is the time in Unix seconds, when the last packet of the flow was received within the aggregation interval. This might be up to 60 seconds after the packet was transmitted or received on the network interface.

VERSION

version (index 0)- The VPC Flow Logs version.

If you use the default format, the version will be 2.

If you use a custom format, the version is the highest version among the specified fields.

ACCOUNTID

account id (index 1) - The AWS account ID of the owner of the source network interface for which traffic is recorded.

If the network interface is created by an AWS service, e.g. when creating a VPC endpoint, the record might display unknown for this field.

INTERFACEID

interface id (index 2) - The ID of the network interface for which the traffic is recorded.

SRCADDR

srcaddr (index 3) - The source address for incoming traffic, or the IPv4 or IPv6 address of the network interface for outgoing traffic on the network interface.

The IPv4 address of the network interface is always its private IPv4 address.

DSTADDR

dstaddr (index 4) - The destination address for outgoing traffic, or the IPv4 or IPv6 address of the network interface for incoming traffic on the network interface.

The IPv4 address of the network interface is always its private IPv4 address.

SRCPORT

srcport (index 5)- The source port of the traffic.

DSTPORT

dstport (index 6) - The destination port of the traffic.

PROTOCOL

protocol (index 7) - The IANA protocol number of the traffic.

PACKETS

packets (index 8) - The number of packets transferred during the flow.

BYTES

bytes (index 9) - The number of bytes transferred during the flow.

START

start (index 10) - Date and Time extracted from converting the start integer representing seconds in UTC since the epoch (1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC) to RFC3339Nano format.
start is the time in Unix seconds, when the first packet of the flow was received within the aggregation interval. This might be up to 60 seconds after the packet was transmitted or received on the network interface.

ACTION

action (index 12) - The action that is associated with the traffic:

ACCEPT - The traffic was accepted.

REJECT - The traffic was rejected. e.g. the traffic was not allowed by the security groups or network ACLs, or packets arrived after the connection was closed.

LOGSTATUS

log status (index 13) - The logging status of the flow log:

OK - Data is logging normally to the chosen destinations.

NODATA - There was no network traffic to or from the network interface during the aggregation interval.

SKIPDATA - Some flow log records were skipped during the aggregation interval. This might be because of an internal capacity constraint, or an internal error.

SNAREDATAMAP

All unclassified field/s in the log will be pushed into the SNAREDATAMAP.
