Hi there,

I am planning on using NiFi for various types of data ingestion, but was
wondering if I could use NiFi for raw UDP packet forwarding.

The data I am trying to route is:

1) Collectd (UDP): I don't think that there is a collectd processor for
NiFi, so I'd like to take the raw UDP flows and direct them to Telegraf and
Logstash (for testing purposes) that are listening locally on different
ports.


2) Syslog (UDP): I'd like to test sending raw UDP packets to multiple
destinations as well as processing/filtering syslog with the NiFi syslog
module.


3) Netflow (UDP):  I'm going to performance test receiving a large raw
netflow stream and would like to be able to filter out only the netflow
packets for the protocol types I'm interested in for my application.


So these are my use cases for now, but I'm a bit lost in the NiFi
documentation on how to route raw UDP packets without any specific
processing being done to those packets.


Thanks!
