Fortigate Netflow

[Khodesaeed]

Hi,
Is there anybody success in receiving Fortigate Netflow with this plugin?
ASA I send Fortigate Netflow to my td-agent NetFlow plugin, I am facing some large error logs:

2022-05-22 08:43:44 +0430 [warn]: #0 unexpected error on parsing data="\"\\x00\\t\\x00\\x12\\xD ... \xA8q\\x00\"" error_class=RangeError error="bignum too big to convert into `unsigned long long'"
  2022-05-22 08:43:44 +0430 [warn]: #0 suppressed same stacktrace

I did try this template file. but, still no luck.

I appreciate any help.

I am glad to announce that I've accomplished receiving the Fortigate Netflow traffic through the steps below:
First thing first I captured the packets that are sent from the firewall whit this command:

tshark -f "udp port 7070" -i ens192 -V -d "udp.port==7070,cflow" -c10 > somefile

After doing some investigation, I've found out that some types are unknown:

            Unknown Field Type: Type 66: Value (hex bytes): 00 00 00 00
            Unknown Field Type: Type 65: Value (hex bytes): 0c 0c

Finally based on documentation that is provided in README, and facilitating the definitions parameter, I've accomplished parsing the incoming NetFlow traffic.

Template folder:

---
option:
  65:
  - :skip
  66:
  - skip

Fluentd Configuration:

<source>
  @type  netflow
  tag netflow.event

STDOUT

Although I can get the data on STDOUt or even file, I can't send the data to the OpenSearch cluster with this method.
Still get the ERROR that I mentioned in the first comment.

For me error_class=RangeError error="bignum too big to convert into unsigned long long'" error was caused by

  95:
  - 9
  - :app_id

Can be solved by

  95:
  - :string
  - :app_id

or

  95:
  - :skip

My template (the only used :string field is :app_id)
