Hi, I'm trying to create a line graph of bandwidth based on data from net flow.  
I'm pretty new to kibana and so not sure what I should share here on config.

Basically I have a ingress BGP AS number as a filter and I wish to create a line graph  
of bandwidth in bits per second for that AS.

I have a field called ipfix.octetDeltaCount, which I understand to be a field that contains  
the number of octet (bytes) in that particular flow packet.

My thought was to create the Y-Axis as a sum of the ipfix.octetDeltaCount field and with the X-Axis  
being a Date Histogram field @timestamp.

What gets drawn does not match our snmp polling of the interface.

As a side I'm trying to do this as Bits Per Second, so I figured I needed to create a field in the log stash  
config that is calculated from octets and multiple it by 8 to get bits..

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Have you tried creating this graph using the new [time-series visual builder](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/time-series-visual-builder.html)?
