> Hi all,

> I'm having a few issues with understanding how to install nfsen.
>
> This installation read me says:
> Make sure you have nfdump configured with option --enable-nfprofile
>
> Where do I find instructions to tell me how to do that? (...or 'how do I
> do that?')
>
>
> # The Profiles directory, where all netflow data is stored
> $PROFILEDATADIR="${BASEDIR}/profiles-data";
>
>
> I already have nfcapd running and am dropping the flow data in
> /var/cache/nfdump so am I meant to set the above to /var/cache/nfdump ?
>
>
> # Netflow sources
> # Define an ident string, port and colour per netflow source
>
> ...

> %sources = (
> 'upstream1' => { 'port' => '9995', 'col' => '#0000ff', 'type' =>

> 'peer1' => { 'port' => '9996', 'IP' => '172.16.17.18' },
> 'peer2' => { 'port' => '9996', 'IP' => '172.16.17.19' },
