About
pflogx is a simple tool to export OpenBSD's packet filter logs to XML files. It reads a binary logfile generated by the pf logging daemon (pflogd) to generate a human-readable and exploitable XML file. Using an XSLT processor you can convert this XML file to any other format (HTML, CSV, SQL, ...).
