[SecViz] Afterglow: Is it possible to split a field?

Hi Paul,

Sure you can do that.

Let's say you have a three column input:

10.0.0.1,20.2.2.2,100
12.2.2.2,10.0.0.1,12

So, you have a source address, destination address, and a count. Then do this:

cat file | afterglow -t -c file.properties | ....

What is important is the -t, which tells AfterGlow to only visualize two columns. The third column will still be available in your config file. So, the file.properties would look something like:

color.target = "red" if ($fields[2]>100)

Note, it's $fields[2], not 3! What you could also:

color = "green" if (fields()>100)

Hope this helps. Looking forward to seeing your output on secviz.org. What's the use-case you are after?

Cheers

Raffael
