This section explains the contents of the various output files and reports that Bro creates.

5.1 Rotating Log Files

There are a number of ways to control the rotation of Bro's log files. Here are some examples:


# if using one log, must open append (default = truncate )
@load log-append

@load rotate-logs

# rotate at midnight
redef log_rotate_base_time = "0:00";

# do not rotate on shutdown  (default = T)
redef RotateLogs::rotate_on_shutdown = F;

# rotate frequency
redef log_rotate_interval = 24 hr;
