Hi there, Do you have a brief set of instructions for how to have a command like bro --iface output only one of the default logs? E.g. the conn.log. ![image001.png](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex011/uploads/zeek/original/1X/becfb6189ba35d49b83f4434d72aa222561ca01d.png) ---

Per the similar stackoverflow post [1], you can do this with:     bro -i \ -b base/protocols/conn The flag -b runs Bro in "bare mode." This disables all default scripts. You can then manually turn on only the scripts you need.     Matthias [1] [security - Bro: Log only one stream - Stack Overflow](http://stackoverflow.com/q/36853106/1170277) ---
