I would be interested in working on this some (I'd especially like to add IPSEC 
reporting for our Internet link).
I've never worked on a collaborative programming project like this, so that leads to a 
few questions:

1.  I'll need to extend the packet decoding and the reporting.  I can look at the icmp 
section of the packet decoding.  Where would the reporting functionality be added?

2.  How do I submit code to be included in the project?

thanks,
Karl Kranich

Write the code, we'll be happy to include it.

The code handling ICMP is a model - it too is an Ethernet but not TCP/IP
protocol.

Remember that the mission of ntop is to pull information of interest to
network admins out of the data streams.  Let that drive what you

I would suggest creating a header tab like "IP Traffic" for "Other
Protocols".  Then have left menu pages for specific protocols.

Subject: [Ntop] New "feature" for NTOP


I was wondering if anyone has  looked into providing more complete support
for IPSEC VPN traffic in NTOP?

ISAKMP is standard TCP/UDP port, but the rest of IPSEC is different IP
protocol numbers (ie functionally at the same level as UDP and TCP) [esp =
protocol 50, ah = protocol 51]

It would be nice if NTOP could also track and display counters for this on
the "all protocols" page.

Others that come to mind at this level include GRE (protocol 47) , TLSP
(56), IPIP (94) , L2TP (115).

http://www.iana.org/assignments/protocol-numbers

Just a thought.

Thanks,
Phil P
