But RouterOS provides an alternative: Netflow. At that time, log the info that was requested including the start time (which would have to be recorded in the NAT entry all the time) and the end time (now). That would be an additional feature: have some way for NAT rules to log at the time they get deleted. This triggers the log at the beginning of the session, and there is no corresponding log at the end. Where it goes wrong is the use of the logging feature of NAT rules. Here is a simple nf, which listens to the legacy syslog protocol on UDP port 514, the new syslog protocol on TCP port 601, and stores any incoming log messages in a file called /var/log/syslog. So when they have some record of a TCP connect from 1.2.3.4:12345 to 4.5.6.7:443 at time X, they want to know which user behind the (CG)NAT router 1.2.3.4 made that connection.ДЇor that, it is required to have the start and end time of that TCP session as seen by the router.Д¬ontrary to what some people seem to think, these start and end times are actually well defined and known by the NAT subsystem of the router, at least for sessions that are successful and have been closed. The intention of these requirements (by authorities) is to have a log of sessions made by users behind a (CG)NAT router. I would just set the start= and stop= to the whatever the event time is and call it a day.

(if only we had the possibility to install user programs running on a restricted user but able to have network sockets, similar to what MetaROUTER used to do but not an entire VM, just a user process.)ДЄs i understood the first post showed an example of the intended format.

For more information see the RFC3164 page. The date format is still only allowed to be RFC3164 style or ISO8601. However, some non-standard syslog formats can be read and parsed if a functional grokpattern is provided. However it would be easy to write in any format and even to syslog using this method.Д«ut you are right, it cannot be done on the router itself, it requires a separate system. By default, this input only supports RFC3164 syslog with some small modifications. It is merely receiving the netflow data and writing it in a tab-separated file (good enough for me), started from the example provided with Net::Flow. (b) a decent/suitable NetFlow collector will cost some money, or require some amount of coding/programming, or both.ДЇor this purpose I wrote a very simple netflow collector in Perl using the Net::Flow library available from CPAN.

(a) you cannot run a NetFlow collector on the router itself, it will have to be installed on a separate computer or VM and Once your traffic data is collected you can export it in whatever format you want.

You setup the collector, then configure you router to export the traffic flow information (see the Traffic Flow manual page).
