HTTP Header FTS

PCAP Mode Only

All HTTP headers including requests (GET, POST,..etc) and responses (HTTP OK, errors ) are stored in the FTS index.

What is Stored ?​

Trisul stores the entire HTTP request or response header as a single document, with every field indexed. You can generate reports by User-Agent, Server, Content-Type or any other field in the HTTP header.

The following extra attributes are added by Trisul to aid some kinds of useful queries

  1. CODE - HTTP response code
  2. URI - The full URL

Sample Document​

A typical document looks like this

    POST /ajax/ufi/like.php HTTP/1.1
    Host: www.facebook.com
    User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux i686; rv:11.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/11.0
