Hi Luca,

Thank you very much for your reply.

I want to use nProbe in sniffer mode which means both directional packets
come in and nothing goes out of the interface. Iam not sure specifying
OUT_PKTS and OUT_BYTES in sniffer mode gives the intended result. Let me
provide you with what i saw.

I invoked nProbe as follows:
----------------------------------------
nprobe -n 10.6.100.134:9992 -m 1 -r TCP_20min_conn.dmp -V 9 -U 260 -T
"%LAST_SWITCHED %FIRST_SWITCHED %IN_PKTS %IN_BYTES %OUT_PKTS %OUT_BYTES
%IPV4_SRC_ADDR %IPV4_DST_ADDR %L4_SRC_PORT %L4_DST_PORT %PROTOCOL
%TCP_FLAGS"

The input file TCP_20min_conn.dmp contains a complete bidirectional 20min
ssh connection. I captured the NetFlow output from nProbe using tcpdump into
nf.dmp. I have attached both the files.

Please note that in nf.dmp the data flowset (flowset 4) contains
IN_BYTES/PKTS while OUT_PKTS/BYTES (type 23/24) are empty. The IN_BYTES/PKTS
seems to give me info for one direction. So what should i do get the info
for pkts from server to client.

Thanks and looking forward to your reply,
Subra.

in V9 the two directions IN/OUT are listed in the same flow (e.g.
bytes_in and bytes_out) so you should have this info already.

Regards, Luca
