What kind of file types can Teleseer analyze?

Teleseer processes network collection files containing 802.3 or 802.11 headers. These files can be one-off collections or can exist within a compressed archive.

In addition to network collection files, Teleseer processes bro/zeek logs.

Network collection files

The following network collection file types are supported:

EXTENSION
.cap
.dmp
.pcap
.pcapng
Google Stenographer

Bro/Zeek

<blockquote class="quote-yellow">Cooked PCAPs
"cooked" network collection files are not currently supported</blockquote>

The following bro/zeek log files can be imported into Teleseer:

FILE DESCRIPTION
conn.log IP, TCP, UDP, ICMP connection details
dhcp.log DHCP lease activity
dns.log DNS query/response details
ftp.log FTP request/reply details
http.log HTTP request/reply details
ntp.log NTP request/reply details
sip.log SIP analysis
smtp.log SMTP transactions
ssh.log SSH handshakes
ssl.log SSL handshakes
tunnel.log Details of encapsulating tunnels

It is recommended to use a supported compressed archive file such that all .log files can be ingested at once.Assets created from log files without layer 2 content will appear within the External Hosts tab.

To create logs with layer 2 content, use the following zeek flag: policy/protocols/conn/mac-logging

# Example
$ zeek -C -r maccdc_demo.pcap policy/protocols/conn/mac-logging


For more information on additional support and policies for zeek, see the Zeek Script Index
