[Zeek] Zeek + PF_Ring Issue

[Jorge García Rodríguez]

Hi Zeekers!

I need to resolve a problem attached to Zeek when its configured to work with PF_Ring.

The thing is that we receive between 1.0 and 2.5 GB/s in a fiber interface. Also when we lauch the command "Zeekctl top" to check the Cpu usage and the traffic managed in each worker, we see that the sum of the traffic of all workers is greater than the traffic we receive through the interface.

This makes me think that we have something badly configured in PF_Ring or somehow Zeek is generating some kind of loop.

For example, receiving 2Gb/s, i execute "Zeekctl top" and the result is the next one:

Name         Type    Host             Pid     VSize  Rss  Cpu   Cmd
logger       logger  localhost        11474     3G   118M  50%  zeek
manager      manager localhost        11520   589M    98M  25%  zeek
proxy-1      proxy   localhost        11565   610M   113M  18%  zeek
worker-1-1   worker  localhost        11693     1G   570M  62%  zeek
worker-1-2   worker  localhost        11701     1G   574M  62%  zeek
worker-1-3   worker  localhost        11711     1G   573M  68%  zeek
worker-1-4   worker  localhost        11713     1G   572M  50%  zeek
worker-1-5   worker  localhost        11718     3G     2G 106%  zeek
worker-1-6   worker  localhost        11719     1G   567M  62%  zeek
worker-1-7   worker  localhost        11726     1G   579M  68%  zeek
worker-1-8   worker  localhost        11732     1G   575M  56%  zeek
worker-1-9   worker  localhost        11733     1G   571M  68%  zeek
worker-1-10  worker  localhost        11735     1G   558M  62%  zeek

Hope someone of you can help me to resolve this.

Really thank you.

Best Regards!
