ipt_NETFLOW linux 2.6.x-4.x kernel module by <[email protected]> -- 2008-2015. High performance NetFlow v5, v9, IPFIX flow data export module for Linux kernel. Created to be useful for highly loaded linux router. It should be used as iptables target. ========================= = Detailed Feature List = ========================= * High performance and scalability. For highest performance module could be run without conntrack being enabled in kernel. Reported to be able to handle 10Gbit traffic with more than 1500000 pps with negligible server load (on S5500BC). * NetFlow v5, v9, and IPFIX are fully supported. Support of v9/IPFIX is adding flexibility to exporting of flow data plus greater visibility of traffic, letting export many additional fields besides what was possible in v5 era. Such as * IPv6 option headers, IPv4 options, TCP options, ethernet type, dot1q service and customer VLAN ids, MAC addresses, and * Full IPv6 support, * NAT translations events (from conntrack) using NetFlow Event Logging (NEL). This is standardized way for v9/IPFIXr, but module export such events even for v5 collectors via specially crafted pseudo-records. * Deterministic (systematic count-based), random and hash Flow Sampling. With appropriate differences in support of v5, v9, and IPFIX. * SNMP agent (for net-snmp) for remote management and monitoring. * Options Templates (v9/IPFIX) let export useful statistical, configurational, and informational records to collector. Such as metering, exporting, sampling stat and reliability stat, sampling configuration, network devices ifName, ifDescr list. * Tested to compile and work out of the box on Centos 5, 6, 7, Debian and * Ubuntu. Many vanilla Linux kernels since 2.6.18 up to the latest (as of * writing is 3.19) are supported and tested. * Module load time and run-time (via sysctl) configuration. * Flexibility in enabling features via ./configure script. This will let you disable features you don't need, which increase compatibility with custom kernels and performance. * SNMP-index translation rules, let convert meaningless and unstable interface indexes (ifIndex) to more meaningful numbering scheme. * Easy support for catching mirrored traffic with promisc option. Which is also supporting optional MPLS decapsulation and MPLS-aware NetFlow. ============================ = OBTAINING LATEST VERSION = ============================ $ git clone git://github.com/aabc/ipt-netflow.git ipt-netflow $ cd ipt-netflow ================ = INSTALLATION = ================ Five easy steps. ** 1. Prepare Kernel source If you have package system install kernel-devel package, otherwise install raw kernel source from http://kernel.org matching _exactly_ version of your installed kernel. a) What to do for Centos: ~# yum install kernel-devel b) What to do for Debian and Ubuntu: ~# apt-get install module-assistant ~# m-a prepare c) Otherwise, if you downloaded raw kernel sources don't forget to create .config by copying it from your distribution's kernel. Its copy could reside in /boot or sometimes in /proc, examples: kernel-src-dir/# cp /boot/config-`uname -r` .config or kernel-src-dir/# zcat /proc/config.gz > .config Assuming you unpacked kernel source into `kernel-src-dir/' directory. Then run: kernel-src-dir/# make oldconfig After that you'll need to prepare kernel for modules build: kernel-src-dir/# make prepare modules_prepare Note: Don't try to `make prepare' in Centos kernel-devel package directory (which is usually something like /usr/src/kernels/2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64) as this is wrong and meaningless. ** 2. Prepare Iptables Before this step it also would be useful to install pkg-config if don't already have. If you have package system just install iptables-devel (or iptables-dev) package, otherwise install iptables source matching version of your installation from ftp://ftp.netfilter.org/pub/iptables/ a) What to do for Centos: # yum install iptables-devel b) What to do for Debian or Ubuntu: # apt-get install iptables-dev pkg-config c) Otherwise, for raw iptables source build it and make install. ** 3. Prepare net-snmp (optional) In case you want to manage or monitor module performance via SNMP you may install net-snmp. If you want to skip this step run configure with --disable-snmp-agent option. a) For Centos: # yum install net-snmp net-snmp-devel b) For Debian or Ubuntu: # apt-get install snmpd libsnmp-dev c) Otherwise install net-snmp from www.net-snmp.org ** 4. Now, to actually build the module run: ~/ipt-netflow# ./configure ~/ipt-netflow# make all install ~/ipt-netflow# depmod This will install kernel module and iptables specific library. Troubleshooting: a) Sometimes you will want to add CC=gcc-3 to make command. Example: make CC=gcc-3.3 b) Compile module with actual kernel source compiled. I.e. first compile kernel and boot into it, and then compile module. If you are using kernel-devel package check that its version matches your kernel package. c) If you have sources in non-standard places or configure isn't able to find something run ./configure --help to see how to specify paths manually. d) To run irqtop on Debian 8 you may need to install: # apt-get install ruby ruby-dev ncurses-dev # gem install curses z) If all fails create ticket at https://github.com/aabc/ipt-netflow/issues ** 5. After this point you should be able to load module and use -j NETFLOW target in your iptables. See next section. ===================== = Configure Options = ===================== Configure script allows to enable or disable optional features: --enable-natevents enables natevents (NEL) support, (this and option will require conntrack support to be enabled into kernel and conntack module (nf_conntrack) loaded before ipt_NETFLOW. Usually this is done automatically because of `depmod', but if you don't do `make install' you'll need to load nf_conntrack manually. Read below for explanation of natevents. --enable-sampler enables flow sampler. Read below for explanation of its configuration option. --enable-sampler=hash additionally enables 'hash' sampler. --disable-snmp-agent disables building net-snmp agent module, which is enabled by default. --enable-snmp-rules enables SNMP-index conversion rules. Read below for explanation of snmp-rules. --enable-macaddress enables exporting of src and dst MAC addresses for every flow in v9/IPFIX. Difference in any of MAC address will be accounted as differnt flow. I.e. MAC addresses will be part of flow key. --enable-vlan enables exporting of dot1q VLAN Ids and Priorities for every flow in v9/IPFIX. It supports outer and second dot1q tags if present. Any of two previous options will enable exporting of Ethernet Packet Type, ethernetType(256). --enable-direction enables exporting of flowDirection(61) Element for v9/IPFIX. Packets captured in PREROUTING and INPUT chains will be accounted as ingress flows(0), in OUTPUT and POSTROUTING as egress flows(1), and in FORWARD will have flowDirection set to undefined value 255. --enable-aggregation enables aggregation rules. Read below for explanation of aggregation. --enable-debugfs enabled debugfs interface to active flows list. NB! This is for debug purposes only. cat /sys/kernel/debug/netflow_dump to see all currently accouned flows. --disable-dkms disable creating dkms.conf and auto-install module into DKMS tree. --disable-dkms-install only disable auto-install into DKMS, but still create dkms.conf, in case you will want to install it manually. --enable-physdev Export ingressPhysicalInterface(252) and egressPhysicalInterface(253) (relevant for bridges) in V9 and IPFIX. If your collector does not support these Elements but you still need physdevs then use --enable-physdev-override, in that case physdevs will override normal interface numbers ingressInterface(10) and egressInterface(14). --enable-promisc Enables capturing of promiscuous packets into raw/PREROUTING chain. See README.promisc Solution 1 for usage details and example. --promisc-mpls Enables MPLS label stack decapsulation for promiscuous packets. (For IPv4 and IPv6 packets only). This also enables MPLS-aware NetFlow (v9 and IPFIX), you may wish to specify with --promisc-mpls=n how much MPLS labels you want to be recorded and exported (default is 3, maximum is 10, set to 0 to not report anything). =========== = RUNNING = =========== 1. You can load module directly by insmod like this: # insmod ipt_NETFLOW.ko destination=127.0.0.1:2055 debug=1 Or if properly installed (make install; depmod) by this: # modprobe ipt_NETFLOW destination=127.0.0.1:2055 See, you may add options in insmod/modprobe command line, or add them in /etc/modprobe.conf or /etc/modprobe.d/ipt_NETFLOW.conf like thus: options ipt_NETFLOW destination=127.0.0.1:2055 protocol=9 natevents=1 2. Statistics is in /proc/net/stat/ipt_netflow Machine readable statistics is in /proc/net/stat/ipt_netflow_snmp To view boring slab statistics: grep ipt_netflow /proc/slabinfo 3. You can view parameters and control them via sysctl, example: # sysctl net.netflow # sysctl net.netflow.hashsize=32768 Note: For after-reboot configuration I recommend to store module parameters in modprobe configs instead of storing them in /etc/sysctl.conf, as it's less clear when init process will apply sysctl.conf, before of after module's load. 4. Example of directing all IPv4 traffic into the module: # iptables -I FORWARD -j NETFLOW # iptables -I INPUT -j NETFLOW # iptables -I OUTPUT -j NETFLOW Note: It is preferable (because easier to understand) to _insert_ NETFLOW target at the top of the chain, otherwise not all traffic may reach NETFLOW if your iptables configuration is complicated and some other rule inadvertently consume the traffic (dropping or acepting before NETFLOW is reached). It's always good to test your configuration. Use iptables -L -nvx to check pkts/bytes counters on the rules. 5. If you want to account IPv6 traffic you should use protocol 9 or 10. Example of directing all IPv6 traffic into the module: # sysctl net.netflow.protocol=10 # ip6tables -I FORWARD -j NETFLOW # ip6tables -I INPUT -j NETFLOW # ip6tables -I OUTPUT -j NETFLOW Note: First enable right version of protocol and after that add ip6tables rules, otherwise you will get errors in dmesg. 6. If you want to account NAT events (NEL): # sysctl net.netflow.natevents=1 Note that natevents feature is completely independent from traffic accounting (it's using so called conntrack events), thus you don't need to set or change any iptables rules to use that. You may need to enable kernel config option CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_EVENTS though (if it isn't already enabled). For details on how they are exported for different protocol versions see below. 7. For SNMP support you will need to add this command into snmpd.conf to enable IPT-NETFLOW-MIB in SNMP agent: dlmod netflow /usr/lib/snmp/dlmod/snmp_NETFLOW.so Restart snmpd for changes to take effect. Don't forget to properly configure access control. Example simplest configuration may looks like (note that this is whole /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf): rocommunity public 127.0.0.1 dlmod netflow /usr/lib/snmp/dlmod/snmp_NETFLOW.so Note, that this config will also allow _full_ read-only access to the whole linux MIB. To install IPT-NETFLOW-MIB locally, copy file IPT-NETFLOW-MIB.my into ~/.snmp/mibs/ * Detailed example of SNMP configuration is there: * https://github.com/aabc/ipt-netflow/wiki/Configuring-SNMP-access To check that MIB is installed well you may issue: $ snmptranslate -m IPT-NETFLOW-MIB -IR -Tp iptNetflowMIB This should output IPT-NETFLOW-MIB in tree form. To check that snmp agent is working well issue: $ snmpwalk -v 1 -c public 127.0.0.1 -m IPT-NETFLOW-MIB iptNetflowMIB Should output full MIB. If MIB is not installed try: $ snmpget -v 1 -c public 127.0.0.1 .1.3.6.1.4.1.37476.9000.10.1.1.1.1.0 Which should output STRING: "ipt_NETFLOW". MIB provides access to very similar statistics that you have in /proc/net/stat/ipt_netflow, you can read description of objects in text file IPT-NETFLOW-MIB.my If you want to access to SNMP stat in machine readable form for your scripts there is file /proc/net/stat/ipt_netflow_snmp Note: Using of SNMP v2c or v3 is mandatory for most tables, because this MIB uses 64-bit counters (Counter64) which is not supported in old SNMP v1. You should understand that 32-bit counter will wrap on 10Gbit traffic in just 3.4 seconds! So, always pass option `-v2c' or `-v3' to net-snmp utils. Or, for example, configure option `defVersion 2c' in ~/.snmp/snmp.conf You can also have `defCommunity public' ov v3 auth parameters (defSecurityName, defSecurityLevel, defPassphrase) set there (man snmp.conf). Examples for dumping typical IPT-NETFLOW-MIB objects: - Module info (similar to modinfo, SNMPv1 is ok for following two objects): $ snmpwalk -v 1 -c public 127.0.0.1 -m IPT-NETFLOW-MIB iptNetflowModule - Read-write sysctl-like parameters (yes, they are writable via snmpset, you may need to configure write access to snmpd, though): $ snmpwalk -v 1 -c public 127.0.0.1 -m IPT-NETFLOW-MIB iptNetflowSysctl - Global performance stat of the module (note -v2c, because rest of the objects require SNMP v2c or SNMP v3): $ snmpwalk -v2c -c public 127.0.0.1 -m IPT-NETFLOW-MIB iptNetflowTotals - Per-CPU (metering) and per-socket (exporting) statistics in table format: $ snmptable -v2c -c public 127.0.0.1 -m IPT-NETFLOW-MIB iptNetflowCpuTable $ snmptable -v2c -c public 127.0.0.1 -m IPT-NETFLOW-MIB iptNetflowSockTable =========== = OPTIONS = =========== Options can be passed as parameters to module or changed dynamically via sysctl net.netflow or IPT-NETFLOW-MIB::iptNetflowSysctl protocol=5 - what version of NetFlow protocol to use. Default is 5. You can choose from 5, 9, or 10 (where 10 is IPFIX). If you plan to account IPv6 traffic you should use protocol 9 or 10 (IPFIX), because NetFlow v5 isn't compatible with IPv6. destination=127.0.0.1:2055 - where to export netflow, to this ip address. Port is optional, default is 2055. You will see this connection in netstat like this: udp 0 0 127.0.0.1:32772 127.0.0.1:2055 ESTABLISHED destination=[2001:db8::1]:2055 - export target using IPv6 address. Brackets are optional, but otherwise you should delimit port with 'p' or '#' character. destination=127.0.0.1:2055,192.0.0.1:2055 - mirror flows to two (can be more) addresses, separate addresses with comma. sampler=deterministic:123 sampler=random:123 sampler=hash:123 - enables Flow Sampling. To disable set to the empty value or to `0'. Note, that this is flow sampling (as of RFC 7014), not packet sampling (PSAMP). There is three sampling modes: deterministic: select each N-th observed flow; in IPFIX this mode is called Systematic count-based Sampling; random: select randomly one out of N flows. hash: select hash-randomly one out of N flows. Number after colon is population size N, with valid values 2-16383. (This 16383 limit is for compatibility with NetFlow v5.) Using 'deterministic' and 'random' sampling will not reduce resource usage caused by the module, because flows are sampled late in exporting process. This will reduces amount of flows which go to the collector, thus, reducing load on the collector. On the other hand, using 'hash' sampling will reduce CPU and memory load caused by the module, because flows are discarded early in the processing chain. They are discarded almost like in random sampler, except that pseudo-random value is depend on the Flow Key hash for each packet. All required NetFlow/IPFIX information to signal use of sampling is also sent to the collector. 'Hash' sampling will be presented as 'random' sampling to the collector, because of their similarity. Note, that Flow Sampling is compatible with NetFlow v5, v9, and IPFIX. natevents=1 - Collect and send NAT translation events as NetFlow Event Logging (NEL) for NetFlow v9/IPFIX, or as dummy flows compatible with NetFlow v5. Default is 0 (don't send). For NetFlow v5 protocol meaning of fields in dummy flows are such: Src IP, Src Port is Pre-nat source address. Dst IP, Dst Port is Post-nat destination address. - These two fields made equal to data flows catched in FORWARD chain. Nexthop, Src AS is Post-nat source address for SNAT. Or, Nexthop, Dst AS is Pre-nat destination address for DNAT. TCP Flags is SYN+SCK for start event, RST+FIN for stop event. Pkt/Traffic size is 0 (zero), so it won't interfere with accounting. Natevents are compilation disabled by default, to enable you will need to add --enable-natevents option to ./configure script. For techical description of NAT Events see: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-behave-ipfix-nat-logging-04 inactive_timeout=15 - export flow after it's inactive for 15 seconds. Default value is 15. active_timeout=1800 - export flow after it's active for 1800 seconds (30 minutes). Default value is 1800. refresh-rate=20 - for NetFlow v9 and IPFIX it's rate how frequently to re-send templates (per packets). You probably don't need to change default (which is 20). timeout-rate=30 - for NetFlow v9 and IPFIX it's rate when to re-send old templates (in minutes). No need to change it. debug=0 - debug level (none). sndbuf=number - size of output socket buffer in bytes. I recommend you to put higher value if you experience netflow packet drops (can be seen in statistics as 'sock: fail' number.) Default value is system default. hashsize=number - Hash table bucket size. Used for performance tuning. Abstractly speaking, it should be minimum two times bigger than flows you usually have, but not need to. Default is system memory dependent small enough value. maxflows=2000000 - Maximum number of flows to account. It's here to prevent DOS attacks. After this limit is reached new flows will not be accounted. Default is 2000000, zero is unlimited. aggregation=string.. - Few aggregation rules (or some say they are rule.) Buffer for aggregation string 1024 bytes, and sysctl limit it to ~700 bytes, so don't write there a lot. Rules worked in definition order for each packet, so don't write them a lot again. Rules applied to both directions (dst and src). Rules tried until first match, but for netmask and port aggregations separately. Delimit them with commas. Rules are of two kinds: for netmask aggregation and port aggregation: a) Netmask aggregation example: 192.0.0.0/8=16 Which mean to strip addresses matching subnet 192.0.0.0/8 to /16. b) Port aggregation example: 80-89=80 Which mean to replace ports from 80 to 89 with 80. Full example: aggregation=192.0.0.0/8=16,10.0.0.0/8=16,80-89=80,3128=80 Aggregation rules are enabled by default, if you feel you don't need them you may add --disable-aggregation to ./configure script. snmp-rules=string... - Few SNMP-index conversion rules similar to fproble-ulog. Quoting man fprobe-ulog: "Comma separated list of interface name to SNMP-index conversion rules. Each rule consists of interface base name and SNMP-index base separated by colon (e.g. ppp:200). Final SNMP-index is sum of corresponding SNMP-index base and interface number. In the above example SNMP-index of interface ppp11 is 211. If interface name did not fit to any of conversion rules then SNMP-index will be taken from kernel." This implementation isn't optimized for performance (no rule caching or hashing), but should be fast if rules list are short. Rules are parsed in order from first to last until first match. snmp-rules are compilation disabled by default, to enable you will need to add --enable-snmp option to ./configure script. scan-min=1 - Minimal interval between flow export scans. Sometimes could be useful to reduce load on exporting CPU by increasing this interval. Value are in kernel jiffies units (which is x/HZ seconds). promisc=1 - Enables promisc hack. See README.promisc Solution 1 for details. exportcpu=number - Lock exporter to single CPU. This may be useful to fine control CPU load. Common use case: with smp_affinity and RSS you spread packet processing to all CPUs except one, and lock it to the exporter. While exporter CPU load generally is not high, for someone it may be not desirable to combine it with packet processing on very highly loaded routers. This option also could be changed at runtime with: # echo number > /sys/module/ipt_NETFLOW/parameters/exportcpu ==================== = HOW TO READ STAT = ==================== Statistics is your friend to fine tune and understand netflow module performance. To see stat in human readable form: # cat /proc/net/stat/ipt_netflow How to interpret the data: > ipt_NETFLOW version v1.8-122-gfae9d59-dirty, srcversion 6141961152BE0DFA6A21EF4; aggr mac vlan This line helps to identify actual source that your module is build on.

[metric]: one minute (ewma) average hash metric per cpu. trunc: how much truncated packets are ignored - for example if packets don't have valid IP header. - it's also accounted in drop packets counter, but not in drop bytes. frag: how much fragmented packets have seen. - kernel defragments INPUT/OUTPUT chains for us if nf_defrag_ipv[46] module is loaded. - these packets are not ignored but not reassembled either, so: - if there is no enough data in fragment (ex. tcp ports) it is considered to be zero. alloc: how much cache memory allocations are failed. - packets ignored and accounted in traffic drop stat. - probably increase system memory if this ever happen. maxflows: how much packets ignored on maxflows (maximum active flows reached). - packets ignored and accounted in traffic drop stat. - you can control maxflows limit by sysctl net.netflow.maxflows variable. traffic: <pkt, bytes>: how much traffic is accounted. pkt, bytes: sum of packets/megabytes accounted by module. - flows that failed to be exported (on socket error) is accounted here too. drop: <pkt, bytes>: how much of traffic is not accounted. pkt, bytes: sum of packets/kilobytes that are dropped by metering process. - reasons these drops are accounted here: truncated/fragmented packets, packet is for new flow but failed to allocate memory for it, packet is for new flow but maxflows is already reached. Traffic lost due to socket errors is not accounted here.

Quoting RFC: "If a Flow Record for a specific Flow Key value already exists, the Flow Record is updated; otherwise, a new Flow Record is created." In this implementation following Elements are treated as Flow Keys: IPv4 source address: sourceIPv4Address(8), IPv6 source address: sourceIPv6Address(27), IPv4 destination address: destinationIPv4Address(12), IPv6 destination address: destinationIPv6Address(28), TCP/UDP source port: sourceTransportPort(7), TCP/UDP destination port: destinationTransportPort(11), input interface: ingressInterface(10), IP protocol: protocolIdentifier(4), IP TOS: ipClassOfService(5), and address family (IP or IPv6). Additional Flow Keys if VLAN exporting is enabled: First (outer) dot1q VLAN tag: dot1qVlanId(243) and dot1qPriority(244) for IPFIX, or vlanId(243) for NetFlow v9. Second (customer) dot1q VLAN tag: dot1qCustomerVlanId(245) and dot1qCustomerPriority(246). Additional Flow Keys if MAC address exporting is enabled: Destination MAC address: destinationMacAddress(80), Source MAC address: sourceMacAddress(56). Additional Flow Keys if MPLS-aware NetFlow is enabled: Captured MPLS stack is fully treated as flow key (including TTL values), which is Elements from mplsTopLabelStackSection(70) to mplsLabelStackSection10(79), and, if present, mplsTopLabelTTL(200). Other Elements are not Flow Keys. Note that outer interface, which is egressInterface(14), is not regarded as Flow Key. Quoting RFC 7012: "For Information Elements ... for which the value may change from packet to packet within a single Flow, the exported value of an Information Element is by default determined by the first packet observed for the corresponding Flow". Note that NetFlow and IPFIX modes of operation may have slightly different Elements being used and different statistics sent via Options Templates. ========= = VOILA = =========
