Runtime Options¶

Weird::sampling_duration¶

Type:	`interval`
Attributes:	`&redef`
Default:	`10.0 mins`

How long a weird of a given type is allowed to keep state/counters in memory. For “net” weirds an expiration timer starts per weird name when first initializing its counter. For “flow” weirds an expiration timer starts once per src/dst IP pair for the first weird of any name. For “conn” weirds, counters and expiration timers are kept for the duration of the connection for each named weird and reset when necessary. E.g. if a “conn” weird by the name of “foo” is seen more than Weird::sampling_threshold times, then an expiration timer begins for “foo” and upon triggering will reset the counter for “foo” and unthrottle its rate-limiting until it once again exceeds the threshold.

Default:	`1000`

The rate-limiting sampling rate. One out of every of this number of rate-limited weirds of a given type will be allowed to raise events for further script-layer handling. Setting the sampling rate to 0 will disable all output of rate-limited weirds.

Functions¶

add_interface¶

Type:	`function` (iold: `string`, inew: `string`) : `string`

Internal function.

add_signature_file¶

Type:	`function` (sold: `string`, snew: `string`) : `string`

Internal function.

discarder_check_icmp¶

Type:	`function` (p: `pkt_hdr`) : `bool`

Function for skipping packets based on their ICMP header. If defined, this function will be called for all ICMP packets before Bro performs any further analysis. If the function signals to discard a packet, no further processing will be performed on it.

P:	The IP and ICMP headers of the considered packet.
Returns:	True if the packet should not be analyzed any further.

Note

This is very low-level functionality and potentially expensive. Avoid using it.

discarder_check_ip¶

Type:	`function` (p: `pkt_hdr`) : `bool`

Function for skipping packets based on their IP header. If defined, this function will be called for all IP packets before Bro performs any further analysis. If the function signals to discard a packet, no further processing will be performed on it.

P:	The IP header of the considered packet.
Returns:	True if the packet should not be analyzed any further.

Note

This is very low-level functionality and potentially expensive. Avoid using it.

discarder_check_tcp¶

Type:	`function` (p: `pkt_hdr`, d: `string`) : `bool`

Function for skipping packets based on their TCP header. If defined, this function will be called for all TCP packets before Bro performs any further analysis. If the function signals to discard a packet, no further processing will be performed on it.

P:	The IP and TCP headers of the considered packet.
D:	Up to `discarder_maxlen` bytes of the TCP payload.
Returns:	True if the packet should not be analyzed any further.

Note

This is very low-level functionality and potentially expensive. Avoid using it.

discarder_check_udp¶

Type:	`function` (p: `pkt_hdr`, d: `string`) : `bool`

Function for skipping packets based on their UDP header. If defined, this function will be called for all UDP packets before Bro performs any further analysis. If the function signals to discard a packet, no further processing will be performed on it.

P:	The IP and UDP headers of the considered packet.
D:	Up to `discarder_maxlen` bytes of the UDP payload.
Returns:	True if the packet should not be analyzed any further.

Note

This is very low-level functionality and potentially expensive. Avoid using it.
