You'll probably have fprobe send to 127.0.0.1 port nnn.

Then start flow-capture ( 
http://www.splintered.net/sw/flow-tools/docs/flow-capture.html ) probably 
something like:

flow-capture -p /flows/pids/flowtool.pid -w /flows/router_1 -E2000M -S5 
0/0/nnn

E2000 would limit space used up to 2 Gbytes, -S5 will keep stats every 5 
minutes. Data will be kept in /flows/router_1. 0/0/nnn will receive on any 
IP address, from any IP address, on port nnn
 
It's almost as simple as that  ...
