The defn of local is the some of all the networks that you tell ntop are
local, or are derived from interface address/mask, etc.

 

So if, in addition to the address of the netflow interface, there’s a
physical 192.168.111.0/24 as your management network, both are “local”.

 

Classification is all based on what ntop sees.  So in the above situation, a
packet from 10.1.1.1 à 192.168.111.111 is (local) to (local).

Subject: [Ntop] IP traffic direction signication

 

Hi,

 

I would like to make sure I understand the figures correctly:

 

I am using NTOP for collecting NETFLOW traffic. 

 

In my Netflow Device definition, I set up the "Virtual Network Interface
Address" to a network address 10.0.0.0/24. My understanding is that
10.0.0./24 is considered as the LOCAL network.

 

now in IP / traffic direction:

 

-local to remote:  I understand this is the OUTGOING traffic from
10.0.0.0/24

 

-remote to local:  I understand this is the INCOMING  traffic to 10.0.0.0/24

 

What then is "Data sent" and "Data received" exactly in Local to remote and
Remote to Local ?

 

 

Other question, is it possible to define multiple Local network ? Very
often, your Local network has several IP ranges.

 

Thanks,

Regards,

 

Fab
