I am running logstash version 7.4.2 and have configured the netflow plugin to get the data to logstash. Below is the config details of flow.conf.

input {
        udp {
        port => 18001
        host => "192.168.31.137"
        codec => netflow
        }
}

filter {

}

output {
        elasticsearch { hosts => ["localhost:9200"] }
}

But logstash is throwing me the error above and I dont see any data flowing through in Kibana.

The codec is blowing up here. I do not understand the error message.

[ERROR] 2022-05-05 09:24:32.009 [<udp.1] udp - Exception in inputworker {"exception"=>java.lang.NullPointerException,

I dont understand the error message either. Hence posting it here for assistance;
