Thanks for the reply. Ok, I can see how I can generate some IDs, but I first want to make sure i have all of the information I need. When I run conntrack, I only see one protocol number. I think it is a layer4 protocol (tcp vs udp). If I'm not seeing an l3proto in my output, why might that be? udp 17 12 src=10.10.201.2 dst=204.174.64.1 sport=54475 dport=53 src=204.174.64.1 dst=209.53.156.2 sport=53 dport=54475 use=1 mark=0 tcp 6 420332 ESTABLISHED src=10.10.100.3 dst=10.10.1.22 sport=1356 dport=5432 src=10.10.1.22 dst=10.10.100.3 sport=5432 dport=1356 [ASSURED] use=1 mark=0 On Wednesday 08 November 2006 11:29, Pablo Neira Ayuso wrote: > Alan Ezust wrote: > > We need to be able to determine when we get an UPDATE or a DISCONNECT, > > which connections they correspond to.
