- On-demand access to sumstats results through "return from"
functions named SumStats::request and Sumstats::request_key.
Both functions are tested in standalone and clustered modes.
- $name field has returned to SumStats which simplifies cluster
code and makes the on-demand access stuff possible.
- Clustered results can only be collected for 1 minute from their
time of creation now instead of time of last read.
- Thresholds use doubles instead of counts everywhere now.
- Calculation dependency resolution occurs at start up time now
instead of doing it at observation time which provide a minor
cpu performance improvement. A new plugin registration mechanism
was created to support this change.
- AppStats now has a minimal doc string and is broken into hook-based
plugins.
- AppStats and traceroute detection added to local.bro
- New, expanded API.
- Calculations moved into plugins.
- Scripts using measurement framework ported.
- Updated the script-land queue implementation to make it more generic.
-
- The feature was primarily added to allow the value to be
modified for cluster based intermediate threshold checks
without requiring the user to write the metrics filter
differently for cluster consideration. It's also a nice
way to calculate some related information to the metric
without accidently applying thresholds to that value.
- Fixed a few small bugs in ftp detect-bruteforcing script
and adapted it to the new threshold value selection feature.
