In its default mode of options, this effectively converts <B><A HREF="http://localhost/cgi-bin/man/man2html?8+argus">argus</A>(8)</B> files from detail to non-detail mode, and merges periodic flow report records to a single argus record, thus compressing the <B><A HREF="http://localhost/cgi-bin/man/man2html?8+argus">argus</A>(8)</B> file to a reduced size. <P> You can modify the aggregation strategy used by <B>ragator</B> to merge records together, by using the <B>-f flowfile</B> option. See <B><A HREF="http://localhost/cgi-bin/man/man2html?5+flowfile">flowfile</A>(5)</B> for a complete description of the format and syntax of the flow model file. <P> <P> <A NAME="lbAF"> </A> <H2>OPTIONS</H2> Ragator, like all ra based clients, supports a number of <B>ra options</B> including filtering of input argus records through a terminating filter expression.
