Realtime monitoring: active flows

[Tbaile]

Real time flow monitoring through netifyd engine, that gives us info and extract data based off the info core sends us.

See draft: #798 outdated

1. Data to Extract for Each Flow

• Start Time: Date and time the flow began.
• Total Bytes: Total amount of data transferred in the flow.
• Source: The client or host initiating the connection.
• Destination: The server or remote host being connected to.
• Protocol: Network protocol used (e.g., TCP, UDP).
• Application: The application or service associated with the flow.

2. Key Tasks

• Real-time flow extraction:

  • Extract and display active flows only.
  • Continuously update the dashboard with real-time data.

• Flow-specific metrics:

  • Integrate flow-specific details: source, destination, protocol, application, bytes, and start time.

• Server creation:

  • Develop a dedicated server responsible for handling the extraction, processing, and delivery of real-time flow data.

• Layout design:

  • Organize columns clearly by flow details, following a layout similar to the provided example.
