This integration sniffs network packets on a host and dissects known protocols.
Monitoring your network traffic is critical to gaining observability and securing your environment — ensuring high levels of performance and security. The Network Packet Capture integration captures the network traffic between your application servers, decodes common application layer protocols and records the interesting fields for each transaction.
Supported Protocols
Currently, Network Packet Capture supports the following protocols:
- ICMP (v4 and v6)
- DHCP (v4)
- DNS
- HTTP
- AMQP 0.9.1
- Cassandra
- Mysql
- PostgreSQL
- Redis
- Thrift-RPC
- MongoDB
- Memcache
- NFS
- TLS
- SIP/SDP (beta)
Common protocol options
The following options are available for all protocols:
map_to_ecs
Remap any non-ECS Packetbeat fields in root to their correct ECS fields. This will rename fields that are moved so the fields will not be present at the root of the document and so any rules that depend on the fields will need to be updated.
The legacy behaviour of this option is to not remap to ECS. This behaviour is still the default, but is deprecated and users are encouraged to set this option to true.
ECS remapping may have an impact on workflows that depend on the identity
of non-ECS fields, and users should assess their use of these fields before
making the change. Users who need to retain data collected with the legacy
mappings may need to re-index their older documents. Instructions for doing
this are available here.
The pipeline used to perform ECS remapping for each data stream can be found
in Stack Management
›Ingest Pipelines
and and searching for
"logs-network_traffic compatibility".
The deprecation and retirement timeline for legacy behavior is available here.
enabled
The enabled setting is a boolean setting to enable or disable protocols without having to comment out configuration sections. If set to false, the protocol is disabled.
The default value is true.
ports
Exception: For ICMP the option enabled
has to be used instead.
The ports where Network Packet Capture will look to capture traffic for specific protocols. Network Packet Capture installs a BPF filter based on the ports specified in this section. If a packet doesn’t match the filter, very little CPU is required to discard the packet. Network Packet Capture also uses the ports specified here to determine which parser to use for each packet.
monitor_processes
If this option is enabled then network traffic events will be enriched with information about the process associated with the events.
The default value is false.
send_request
If this option is enabled, the raw message of the request (request
field) is sent to Elasticsearch. The default is false. This option is
useful when you want to index the whole request. Note that for HTTP, the
body is not included by default, only the HTTP headers.
send_response
If this option is enabled, the raw message of the response (response
field) is sent to Elasticsearch. The default is false. This option is
useful when you want to index the whole response. Note that for HTTP,
the body is not included by default, only the HTTP headers.
transaction_timeout
The per protocol transaction timeout. Expired transactions will no longer be correlated to incoming responses, but sent to Elasticsearch immediately.
tags
A list of tags that will be sent with the transaction event. This setting is optional.
processors
A list of processors to apply to the data generated by the protocol.
keep_null
If this option is set to true, fields with null
values will be
published in the output document. By default, keep_null
is set to
false
.
Network Flows
Overall flow information about the network connections on a host.
You can configure Network Packet Capture to collect and report statistics on network flows. A flow is a group of packets sent over the same time period that share common properties, such as the same source and destination address and protocol. You can use this feature to analyze network traffic over specific protocols on your network.
For each flow, Network Packet Capture reports the number of packets and the total number of bytes sent from the source to the destination. Each flow event also contains information about the source and destination hosts, such as their IP address. For bi-directional flows, Network Packet Capture reports statistics for the reverse flow.
Network Packet Capture collects and reports statistics up to and including the transport layer.
Configuration options
You can specify the following options for capturing flows.
enabled
Enables flows support if set to true. Set to false to disable network flows support without having to delete or comment out the flows section. The default value is true.
timeout
Timeout configures the lifetime of a flow. If no packets have been received for a flow within the timeout time window, the flow is killed and reported. The default value is 30s.
period
Configure the reporting interval. All flows are reported at the very same point in time. Periodical reporting can be disabled by setting the value to -1. If disabled, flows are still reported once being timed out. The default value is 10s.

event.category | This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the second level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.category represents the "big buckets" of ECS categories. For example, filtering on event.category:process yields all events relating to process activity. This field is closely related to event.type , which is used as a subcategory. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple categories. | keyword |
event.dataset | Name of the dataset. If an event source publishes more than one type of log or events (e.g. access log, error log), the dataset is used to specify which one the event comes from.

event.kind | This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the highest level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.kind gives high-level information about what type of information the event contains, without being specific to the contents of the event. For example, values of this field distinguish alert events from metric events. The value of this field can be used to inform how these kinds of events should be handled. They may warrant different retention, different access control, it may also help understand whether the data is coming in at a regular interval or not. | keyword |
event.start | event.start contains the date when the event started or when the activity was first observed. | date |
event.type | This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the third level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.type represents a categorization "sub-bucket" that, when used along with the event.category field values, enables filtering events down to a level appropriate for single visualization. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple event types. | keyword |
flow.final | Indicates if event is last event in flow. If final is false, the event reports an intermediate flow state only. | boolean |

host.os.platform | Operating system platform (such centos, ubuntu, windows). | keyword |
host.os.version | Operating system version as a raw string. | keyword |
host.type | Type of host. For Cloud providers this can be the machine type like t2.medium . If vm, this could be the container, for example, or other information meaningful in your environment. | keyword |
method | The command/verb/method of the transaction. For HTTP, this is the method name (GET, POST, PUT, and so on), for SQL this is the verb (SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE, and so on). | keyword |

network.community_id | A hash of source and destination IPs and ports, as well as the protocol used in a communication. This is a tool-agnostic standard to identify flows. Learn more at https://github.com/corelight/community-id-spec. | keyword |
network.direction | Direction of the network traffic. When mapping events from a host-based monitoring context, populate this field from the host's point of view, using the values "ingress" or "egress". When mapping events from a network or perimeter-based monitoring context, populate this field from the point of view of the network perimeter, using the values "inbound", "outbound", "internal" or "external". Note that "internal" is not crossing perimeter boundaries, and is meant to describe communication between two hosts within the perimeter. Note also that "external" is meant to describe traffic between two hosts that are external to the perimeter. This could for example be useful for ISPs or VPN service providers. | keyword |
network.forwarded_ip | Host IP address when the source IP address is the proxy. | ip |
network.packets | Total packets transferred in both directions. If source.packets and destination.packets are known, network.packets is their sum. | long |

Protocols
AMQP
Configuration options
Also see Common protocol options.
max_body_length
The maximum size in bytes of the message displayed in the request or
response fields. Messages that are bigger than the specified size are
truncated. Use this option to avoid publishing huge messages when
send_request
or
send_response
is enabled. The default is
1000 bytes.
parse_headers
If set to true, Network Packet Capture parses the additional arguments specified in the headers field of a message. Those arguments are key-value pairs that specify information such as the content type of the message or the message priority. The default is true.
parse_arguments
If set to true, Network Packet Capture parses the additional arguments specified in AMQP methods. Those arguments are key-value pairs specified by the user and can be of any length. The default is true.
hide_connection_information
If set to false, the connection layer methods of the protocol are also displayed, such as the opening and closing of connections and channels by clients, or the quality of service negotiation. The default is true.

network.direction | Direction of the network traffic. When mapping events from a host-based monitoring context, populate this field from the host's point of view, using the values "ingress" or "egress". When mapping events from a network or perimeter-based monitoring context, populate this field from the point of view of the network perimeter, using the values "inbound", "outbound", "internal" or "external". Note that "internal" is not crossing perimeter boundaries, and is meant to describe communication between two hosts within the perimeter. Note also that "external" is meant to describe traffic between two hosts that are external to the perimeter. This could for example be useful for ISPs or VPN service providers. | keyword |

dns.response_code | The DNS response code. | keyword |
dns.type | The type of DNS event captured, query or answer. If your source of DNS events only gives you DNS queries, you should only create dns events of type dns.type:query . If your source of DNS events gives you answers as well, you should create one event per query (optionally as soon as the query is seen). And a second event containing all query details as well as an array of answers. | keyword |
ecs.version | ECS version this event conforms to. ecs.version is a required field and must exist in all events. When querying across multiple indices -- which may conform to slightly different ECS versions -- this field lets integrations adjust to the schema version of the events. | keyword |
event.category | This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the second level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.category represents the "big buckets" of ECS categories. For example, filtering on event.category:process yields all events relating to process activity. This field is closely related to event.type , which is used as a subcategory. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple categories. | keyword |

event.kind | This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the highest level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.kind gives high-level information about what type of information the event contains, without being specific to the contents of the event. For example, values of this field distinguish alert events from metric events. The value of this field can be used to inform how these kinds of events should be handled. They may warrant different retention, different access control, it may also help understand whether the data is coming in at a regular interval or not. | keyword |
event.start | event.start contains the date when the event started or when the activity was first observed. | date |
event.type | This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the third level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.type represents a categorization "sub-bucket" that, when used along with the event.category field values, enables filtering events down to a level appropriate for single visualization. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple event types. | keyword |

network.direction | Direction of the network traffic. When mapping events from a host-based monitoring context, populate this field from the host's point of view, using the values "ingress" or "egress". When mapping events from a network or perimeter-based monitoring context, populate this field from the point of view of the network perimeter, using the values "inbound", "outbound", "internal" or "external". Note that "internal" is not crossing perimeter boundaries, and is meant to describe communication between two hosts within the perimeter. Note also that "external" is meant to describe traffic between two hosts that are external to the perimeter. This could for example be useful for ISPs or VPN service providers. | keyword |
network.forwarded_ip | Host IP address when the source IP address is the proxy. | ip |

HTTP
Configuration options
Also see Common protocol options.
hide_keywords
A list of query parameters that Network Packet Capture will automatically censor in
the transactions that it saves. The values associated with these
parameters are replaced by 'xxxxx'
. By default, no changes are made to
the HTTP messages.
Network Packet Capture has this option because, unlike SQL traffic, which typically only contains the hashes of the passwords, HTTP traffic may contain sensitive data. To reduce security risks, you can configure this option to avoid sending the contents of certain HTTP POST parameters.
This option replaces query parameters from GET requests and top-level
parameters from POST requests. If sensitive data is encoded inside a
parameter that you don’t specify here, Network Packet Capture cannot censor it.
Also, note that if you configure Network Packet Capture to save the raw request and
response fields (see the send_request
and
the send_response
options), sensitive data
may be present in those fields.
redact_authorization
When this option is enabled, Network Packet Capture obscures the value of
Authorization
and Proxy-Authorization
HTTP headers, and censors
those strings in the response.
You should set this option to true for transactions that use Basic Authentication because they may contain the base64 unencrypted username and password.
send_headers
A list of header names to capture and send to Elasticsearch. These
headers are placed under the headers
dictionary in the resulting JSON.
send_all_headers
Instead of sending a white list of headers to Elasticsearch, you can send all headers by setting this option to true. The default is false.
redact_headers
A list of headers to redact if present in the HTTP request. This will keep the header field present, but will redact it’s value to show the header’s presence.
include_body_for
The list of content types for which Network Packet Capture exports the full HTTP
payload. The HTTP body is available under http.request.body.content
and http.response.body.content
for these Content-Types.
In addition, if send_response
option is
enabled, then the HTTP body is exported together with the HTTP headers
under response
and if send_request
enabled, then request
contains the entire HTTP message including the
body.
In the following example, the HTML attachments of the HTTP responses are
exported under the response
field and under
http.request.body.content
or http.response.body.content
:
Network Packet Capture.protocols:
- type: http
ports: [80, 8080]
send_response: true
include_body_for: ["text/html"]
decode_body
A boolean flag that controls decoding of HTTP payload. It interprets the
Content-Encoding
and Transfer-Encoding
headers and uncompresses the
entity body. Supported encodings are gzip
and deflate
. This option
is only applicable in the cases where the HTTP payload is exported, that
is, when one of the include_*_body_for
options is specified or a POST
request contains url-encoded parameters.
split_cookie
If the Cookie
or Set-Cookie
headers are sent, this option controls
whether they are split into individual values. For example, with this
option set, an HTTP response might result in the following JSON:
"response": {
"code": 200,
"headers": {
"connection": "close",
"content-language": "en",
"content-type": "text/html; charset=utf-8",
"date": "Fri, 21 Nov 2014 17:07:34 GMT",
"server": "gunicorn/19.1.1",
"set-cookie": {
"csrftoken": "S9ZuJF8mvIMT5CL4T1Xqn32wkA6ZSeyf",
"expires": "Fri, 20-Nov-2015 17:07:34 GMT",
"max-age": "31449600",
"path": "/"
},
"vary": "Cookie, Accept-Language"
},
"status_phrase": "OK"
}
- Note that
set-cookie
is a map containing the cookie names as keys.
The default is false.
real_ip_header
The header field to extract the real IP from. This setting is useful
when you want to capture traffic behind a reverse proxy, but you want to
get the geo-location information. If this header is present and contains
a valid IP addresses, the information is used for the
network.forwarded_ip
field.
max_message_size
If an individual HTTP message is larger than this setting (in bytes), it will be trimmed to this size. Unless this value is very small (less than 1.5K), Network Packet Capture is able to still correctly follow the transaction and create an event for it. The default is 10485760 (10 MB).
