Abstract
A computer implemented method and system for simulating the effect of one or more flow specification rules upon archived network flow data. Archived network flow data is retrieved from a database that was exported from a network device. One or more flow specification rules are applied to the archived network flow data, wherein the one or more flow specification rules are configured to perform one or more flow specification actions on the archived network flow data. Determined are one or more flow actions affected on the archived network flow data by the applied one or more flow specification rules. Indication/notification of the determined one or more flow actions are provided.
