Description

Hello,
Currently the DNS dump file from DNS plugin does not include VLAN information. This information is required to correctly identify source where traffic is aggregated from multiple VLANs. Can you please add VLAN info in the DNS dump file.

Also it would be great if a custom format can be supported for the DNS dump file ( like the -T flag)

Research direction

Locate the DNS plugin's dump-file generation and the existing handling for the -T flag. The work is done when the DNS dump includes VLAN information and supports a custom format comparable to -T; no file or test path is named in the issue.
