Hi Victory,

I found a reply posted by Shivani for someone who was working on a similar
issue (#4060) very helpful. I will include it here hoping it would be of
use to you as well.

"Yes, you need to make sure createst accepts the params as mentioned in
the issue.
You can test it by running createst for any pcap (you can download a
pcap of your choice or choose one from any of the tests in
suricata-verify/tests/) and see if the output "test.yaml" has the
expected fields (in this case "min-version").

I'd recommend trying out createst first so you get an idea what it
does and what's it about. Its usage can be found here:

"
