Hello,

I have a few CFLOW (netflow v9) packets that I'd like to refeed using a python script. Specifically this python script.

How exactly do I export the packet data as a hex string? I tried to right click > copy > ... as hex stream. But that gives me the data in ...0009000c01f200f25b0fa... format and not in ...\x00\t\x00\x15e\x9c\ ... format. Is this possible? Kindly advice.

Thanks.

Try using the "...as Escaped String" option of Copy.

I tried that but unfortunately that doesn't seem to work with the script. The script basically replays the data to 2055 where my logshtash instance is running. If I feed it the escaped string data, logstash complains stating that the data received is incorrect. Also, there is a difference in formatting between what is present in the script vs what is being generated by "as escaped string" - something which I'm not able to figure our at the moment

Those are the only hex formats supported by Wireshark, you'll probably have to adjust the script to handle the input you give it.
