Aashish Sharma commented on BIT-1335:
-------------------------------------

I prefer keeping protocol + fid  - Easy to sort extracted files in different buckets quickly when going through a big pcap.  Generally there isn't big need to tie back a file with session since the extractions are "going forward" in workflow. However FID is sufficient to tie backwards with other logs. 

I am sure you have a better use case for uid+timestamp. I cannot quite think of one. 

(I take timestamp is for case where multiple files are part of same uid ?)

> We've mentioned a few times that it'd be nice to have an "extract all files" policy script that ships with Bro. Can we get this into 2.4?
