Do you think that Go-Flows has any advantage compared with tcpdump?
>>>
Go-Flows has the advantage over tcpdump if a lot of customized options to
filter the traffic capture is needed. Other than that, tcpdump is usually already
known and easy to get started with. For simple filtering purposes I consider
tcpdump to be faster than Go-Flows.
>>>
What are the proportions of TCP, UDP, and ICMP traffic? And traffic that is not
TCP, UDP, or ICMP?
>>>
About half (~47%) of the capture is TCP traffic. ICMP traffic is about 40% and
UDP traffic about 7%. The rest of the traffic makes up about 6%.
>>>
How much traffic is related to websites (HTTP, HTTPS)? And DNS traffic?
>>>
HTTP traffic: ~14.12%
HTTPS traffic: ~15.25%
DNS traffic: ~00.82%

## From Pcap to Flow Vectors

Remember that here we have extracted flows within a time-frame of 10 seconds.
Can you think about legitimate and illegitimate situations for case (c), i.e., a
source sending traffic to many different destinations in a short time?

You can additionally count the number of flows that show TCP, UDP, ICMP, and
other IP protocols as "mode" protocol. Do you think that you will get a similar
proportion as in [rep-11]? Beyond answering "yes" or "no", think about reasons
that might make such proportions similar or different (there are some that are
worth considering).

## From Pcap to Aggregated Vectors
>>>
It is obvious that the three explored time series have different
order-of-magnitude, but are they correlated? Time series must be plotted, so we
encourage you to do that. Depending on the analysis platform (Python, MATLAB, R,
etc.), you have commands that evaluate correlations between signals by outputting
a numerical value (0: no correlation, 1: maximum direct correlation, -1: maximum
inverse correlation). However, whenever possible, we recommend using plots and
visual representations. Plot the three time-series. To better assess
correlations, you can scale/normalize signals before plotting them.

Additionally, you can assess value distributions by plotting histograms. We
recommend also plotting central tendency values (mean, median, standard
deviation) superposed on the histograms to check if they are representative of
the data. Are they?
