Hello Hendrik, I was wondering if you determined a solution for running multiple instances of NTOP. If Im not mistaken the end result would be daily historic information your could view, however Im wondering how you would view this data?
Just a comment: I remember Luca saying he was working on RRD plugin which would be really nice to have because I think that is exactly what I need. But for now I need NTOP to continue running but I also need to seperate daily stats (at least daily).
