Hello,
  I have a doubt about the way nfsen calculates statistics when flags -n 
and -c are given.

  If I write:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 

nfdump -R /mydata  -q -a  -A srcip,dstip "net mynet/mymask" -n 1000 -c 
100000 -o "fmt:%sa %da %byt"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  the -n 1000 flag is used to show the top 1000 flows that will be shown 
in the resulting list and the -c 100000 flag refers to the amount of 
flows used to work (make the calculations).
  My doubt is the following: Where are the 100000 flows given in the -c 
flag taken from?
A) 100000 flows per each flow archive (In /mydata I have flow files with 
the form yearmonthdayhour). In this case, if I have n archives, I would 
have the calculations made based on 100000*n flows, which is good for me.
B) Merging (somehow) the n file flows in the /mydata directory and 
taking the first 100000 flows from that merge.

Thank you!
