PropertyDescription
bytesTotal number of bytes processed in the flow.
ip-total-lenghtLength of the IP packet in bytes.
src-addressThe source IP address of the flow.
dst-addressThe destination IP address of the flow.
ipv6-flow-labelLabel field from an IPv6 header, used to classify flows.
src-address-maskNetwork mask for the source address, useful in summarizing data.
dst-address-maskNetwork mask for the destination address.
is-multicastIndicates whether the flow is a multicast flow.
src-mac-addressSource MAC address.
dst-mac-addressDestination MAC address.
last-forwardedTimestamp of the last packet forwarded in a flow.
src-portSource port number.
dst-portDestination port number.
nat-dst-addressTranslated destination IP address by NAT.
sys-init-timeSystem initialization time, can be used for timing analysis.
first-forwardedTimestamp of the first packet forwarded in a flow.
nat-dst-portTranslated destination port number by NAT.
tcp-ack-numAcknowledgment number in a TCP connection.
gatewayIP address of the gateway through which the flow was routed.
nat-events
Events related to Network Address Translation for the flow.
tcp-flags
Flags from the TCP header (e.g., SYN, ACK).
icmp-code
ICMP code for error messaging and operational information.
nat-src-address
Translated source IP address by NAT.
icmp-type
Type of ICMP message, important for diagnostic messages.
nat-src-port
Translated source port number by NAT.
tcp-seq-num
Sequence number in a TCP connection.
tcp-window-size
Window size in a TCP connection, indicating the scale of received data buffering.
igmp-type
Type of Internet Group Management Protocol operation.
out-interface
Interface through which packets of the flow are sent out.
in-interface
Interface through which packets of the flow are received.
packetsNumber of packets processed in the flow.
ip-header-length
Length of the IP header.
protocolProtocol number (e.g., TCP, UDP, ICMP).
tosType of Service field in the IP header, indicating priority and handling of the packet.
ttlTime To Live for the packet, decremented by each router to prevent infinite loops.
udp-lengthLength of the UDP payload.


Notes

By looking at the packet flow diagram you can see that traffic flow is at the end of the input, forward, and output chain stack. It means that traffic flow will count only traffic that reaches one of those chains.
