Conversation ID

EF_PROCESSOR_ENRICH_CONVERSATIONID_ENABLE

Specifies whether flow records should be enriched with a Conversation ID value. This value is similar to a community ID (see... EF_PROCESSOR_ENRICH_COMMUNITYID_ENABLE). However, rather than being based on the src/dst relationship of two endpoints, it is based on the client/server perspective. While multiple unique sessions (i.e. a unique client-side port for each session) will each have their own Community ID, they will share the same Conversation ID. This provides greater flexibility when exploring a complex flow dataset.
