Subject: collecting statistics from a switch.
To: [email protected]
Hello all,
what am i trying to do?
I'm trying to use ng_netflow on freebsd 4.11 'tell' flow statistics from a switch to which a number of routers will be connected.
what have i done so far?
installed ng_netflow ng_netflow- 0.2.5 from ports
some where in fresh ports i'm told to "kldload netgraph" and "kldload /modules/ng_netflow.ko" which i with no error being reported
what is the problem?
configuring ng_netflow to collect flow stats from the switch.
Has anyone ever setup ng_netflow and or can they still remember how to configure it?
One thing i have noted is that this software's documentation is kinda scarse (even on the lists i have been tryin to use they hint such things) so I'm wondering if there can be a better solution.
Thanx in advance!
