Events

.. zeek:id:: Broker::endpoint_discovered
:source-code: base/bif/comm.bif.zeek 78 78
:Type: :zeek:type:`event` (endpoint: :zeek:type:`Broker::EndpointInfo`, msg: :zeek:type:`string`)
Generated when a new Broker endpoint appeared.
.. zeek:id:: Broker::endpoint_unreachable
:source-code: base/bif/comm.bif.zeek 82 82
:Type: :zeek:type:`event` (endpoint: :zeek:type:`Broker::EndpointInfo`, msg: :zeek:type:`string`)
Generated when the last path to a Broker endpoint has been lost.
.. zeek:id:: Broker::error
:source-code: base/frameworks/broker/log.zeek 83 96
:Type: :zeek:type:`event` (code: :zeek:type:`Broker::ErrorCode`, msg: :zeek:type:`string`)
Generated when an error occurs in the Broker sub-system. This event
reports local errors in Broker, as indicated by the provided
:zeek:type:`Broker::ErrorCode`.
:param code: the type of error that triggered this event.
:param msg: a message providing additional context.
.. zeek:see:: Broker::peer_added Broker::peer_removed Broker::peer_lost
Broker::endpoint_discovered Broker::endpoint_unreachable Broker::status
.. zeek:id:: Broker::internal_log_event
:source-code: base/frameworks/broker/log.zeek 98 122
:Type: :zeek:type:`event` (lvl: :zeek:type:`Broker::LogSeverityLevel`, id: :zeek:type:`string`, description: :zeek:type:`string`)
Generated when Broker emits an internal logging event.
:param lvl: the severity of the event as reported by Broker.
:param id: an identifier for the event type.
:param description: a message providing additional context.
.. zeek:id:: Broker::peer_added
:source-code: base/bif/comm.bif.zeek 36 36
:Type: :zeek:type:`event` (endpoint: :zeek:type:`Broker::EndpointInfo`, msg: :zeek:type:`string`)
Generated when a new peering has been established. Both sides of the peering
receive this event, created independently in each endpoint. For the endpoint
establishing the peering, the added endpoint's network information will match
the address and port provided to :zeek:see:`Broker::peer`; for the listening
endpoint it's the peer's TCP client's address and (likely ephemeral) TCP
port.
:param endpoint: the added endpoint's Broker ID and connection information.
:param msg: a message providing additional context.
.. zeek:see:: Broker::peer_removed Broker::peer_lost
Broker::endpoint_discovered Broker::endpoint_unreachable
Broker::status Broker::error
.. zeek:id:: Broker::peer_lost
:source-code: base/bif/comm.bif.zeek 74 74
:Type: :zeek:type:`event` (endpoint: :zeek:type:`Broker::EndpointInfo`, msg: :zeek:type:`string`)
Generated when the local endpoint has lost its peering with another
endpoint. This event fires when the other endpoint stops or removes the
peering for some other reason. This event is independent of the original
directionality of connection establishment.
:param endpoint: the lost endpoint's Broker ID and connection information.
:param msg: a message providing additional context.
.. zeek:see:: Broker::peer_added Broker::peer_removed
Broker::endpoint_discovered Broker::endpoint_unreachable
Broker::status Broker::error
.. zeek:id:: Broker::peer_removed
:source-code: base/bif/comm.bif.zeek 59 59
:Type: :zeek:type:`event` (endpoint: :zeek:type:`Broker::EndpointInfo`, msg: :zeek:type:`string`)
Generated when the local endpoint has removed its peering with another
endpoint. This event can fire for multiple reasons, such as a local call to
:zeek:see:`Broker::unpeer`, or because Broker autonomously decides to
unpeer. One reason it might do this is message I/O backpressure overflow,
meaning that the remote peer cannot keep up with the stream of messages the
local endpoint sends it. Regardless of the cause, the remote endpoint will
locally trigger a corresponding :zeek:see:`Broker::peer_lost` event once the
peering ends. These events are independent of the original directionality of
TCP connection establishment and only reflect which endpoint terminates the
peering.
:param endpoint: the removed endpoint's Broker ID and connection information.
:param msg: a message providing additional context. If backpressure overflow
caused this unpeering, the message contains the string
*caf::sec::backpressure_overflow*.

Broker::endpoint_discovered Broker::endpoint_unreachable
Broker::status Broker::error
.. zeek:id:: Broker::status
:source-code: base/bif/comm.bif.zeek 96 96
:Type: :zeek:type:`event` (endpoint: :zeek:type:`Broker::EndpointInfo`, msg: :zeek:type:`string`)
Generated when an unspecified change occurs in Broker. This event only fires
when the status change isn't covered by more specific Broker events. The
provided message string may be empty.
:param endpoint: the Broker ID and connection information, if available,
of the endpoint the update relates to.
:param msg: a message providing additional context.
