I don't think you can - sampling is usually a function of the COLLECTOR not the receiver (ntop).
Scaling is very different than sampling, btw. And any assumption that 1/64th the traffic is a good metric for 1/1th the traffic is probably fatally flawed unless you really, really understand your traffic. -----Burton -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brgomeistr Sent: Monday, July 11, 2005 3:50 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Ntop] netflow sampling rate How do I set the sampling rate for a netflow interface? I have created a netflow interface (NetFlow-device.2) using the netflow device plugin, but am unable to find a way to set the sampling rate for this interface. I see that you can modify the sampling rate for local interface using "Configure > Startup Options". I am currently exporting netflow data (at a sampled rate of 1 out of every 64 packets) from a router to the ntop server. This data must be scaled (x64) to properly indicate the amount of traffic flowing through the router's interface. Is there a way to do this via the netflow collector included with ntop?
