Core Clients

Ra Core Clients

The argus-clients package provides a set of core client programs that provide the basic functions needed to use argus flow data. This includes printing, processing, sorting, aggregating, tallying, collecting, distributing, archiving, and anonymizing data. Here we provide basic examples of how to use these utilities; ra, rabins, racluster, racount, radium, ranonymize, rasort and rasplit. For these examples, we use standard sets of argus data.

ra

Basic argus record reading and printing and storing.

rabins

Align argus data to time based bins.

racluster

Argus data aggregation

recount

Tally various aspects of an argus stream.

radium

Argus record collection and distribution.

ranonymize

Anonymization of argus data record contents.

rasort

Argus data file or stream sorting.

rasplit

Split argus data into multiple files.

Each of these core programs provide a basic set of features that are needed to get utility from argus based flow data.
