Parses an incoming Zeek TSV stream into events.
read_zeek_tsvDescription
Section titled “Description”The Zeek network security monitor comes with its own tab-separated value (TSV) format for representing logs. This format includes additional header fields with field names, type annotations, and additional metadata.
The read_zeek_tsv operator processes this metadata to extract a schema for the
subsequent log entries. The Zeek types count, real, and addr map to the
respective Tenzir types uint64, double, and ip.
Here’s an example of a typical Zeek conn.log in TSV form:
