great. this looks like a convinient way of solving our problems and we
are still able to keep all our data in one format (flow-tools format)
instead of juggling about multiple formats.=20

will flow-capture a feature to read a configuration file that is able to
assign the tags based on network addresses?=20

since tags can be anything including prefixes, this would be a neat
solution.
