--
when viewing cflow records in wireshark , a calculation is done to comute
duration of a flow record using field type 154 (flowStartMicroseconds) and
field type 155 (flowEndMicroseconds) . Although whole date and time in seconds
are correct the "microseconds" are miscalculated. The calculation being done is
as if the fields are NTP structures
struct ntp_time_t {
uint32_t second; //seconds have elapsed since Jan 1, 1900
uint32_t fraction; // 2**32 of second
};
however the structure really is something like
struct appflow_microsecond_time_t {
uint32_t second; //seconds have elapsed since Jan 1, 1900
uint32_t fraction; // number of microseconds
};
where the fractional part is already in microseconds not an NTP fraction.
