Problem Description:

The api response for the active connections endpoint returns this type of output:

[SYSTEM] Founded config files
[SYSTEM] Readed configs for env variable: "Kubernetes"
=====> Connecting to cortexflow Client
=====> Connected to CortexFlow Client
{"\"35655\"": "\"143.171.168.192\"", "\"48872\"": "\"133.171.168.192\"", "\"35623\"": "\"148.171.168.192\"", "\"48807\"": "\"173.171.168.192\"", "\"60011\"": "\"136.171.168.192\"", "\"48551\"": "\"163.171.168.192\"", "\"48582\"": "\"129.171.168.192\"", "\"48580\"": "\"133.171.168.192\"", "\"100228\"": "\"147.171.168.192\"", "\"46616\"": "\"133.171.168.192\"", "\"36079\"": "\"136.171.168.192\"", "\"36077\"": "\"136.171.168.192\"", "\"43845\"": "\"131.171.168.192\"", "\"35619\"": "\"136.171.168.192\"", "\"45042\"": "\"135.171.168.192\"", "\"42669\"": "\"148.171.168.192\"", "\"49747\"": "\"143.171.168.192\"", "\"45305\"": "\"147.171.168.192\"", "\"45280\"": "\"147.171.168.192\"", "0": "0", "\"45281\"": "\"147.171.168.192\"", "\"36682\"": "\"136.171.168.192\"", "\"35631\"": "\"148.171.168.192\"", "\"42722\"": "\"148.171.168.192\"", "\"44074\"": "\"136.171.168.192\"", "\"45\"": "\"133.171.168.192\"", "\"44335\"": "\"136.171.168.192\"", "\"35625\"": "\"148.171.168.192\"", "\"32\"": "\"156.171.168.192\"", "\"36073\"": "\"135.171.168.192\"", "\"49748\"": "\"143.171.168.192\"", "\"45282\"": "\"147.171.168.192\"", "\"49380\"": "\"129.171.168.192\"", "\"35620\"": "\"148.171.168.192\"", "\"90399\"": "\"158.171.168.192\"", "\"49077\"": "\"143.171.168.192\"", "\"45312\"": "\"147.171.168.192\"", "\"49383\"": "\"133.171.168.192\"", "\"48581\"": "\"133.171.168.192\"", "\"48809\"": "\"173.171.168.192\"", "\"49379\"": "\"156.171.168.192\"", "\"0\"": "\"173.171.168.192\"", "\"42725\"": "\"148.171.168.192\"", "\"42721\"": "\"148.171.168.192\"", "\"44075\"": "\"136.171.168.192\"", "\"41299\"": "\"135.171.168.192\"", "\"16\"": "\"143.171.168.192\"", "\"44071\"": "\"136.171.168.192\"", "\"42720\"": "\"148.171.168.192\""}

The first number is associated with the event ID, while the second number represents the scanned IP.
This is the current schema:

    {
        "event_id":,
        "src_ip":
    }

This type of output is visually messy and doesn't give enough information to the user.

Solution:

The response can be improved by refactoring the output as follows:

{
  "event_id":,
  "src_ip/src_port":,
  "dst_ip/src_port":,
}

Additional info:

API proto file: agent.proto
API implementation: api.rs
