There are TWO addresses on the plugin screen:

Outgoing Flows Remote Collector IP Address :2055

This is the address the flows are sent to.

Virtual NetFlow Interface
Network Address Local Network IP Address/Mask:
Format: digit.digit.digit.digit/digit.digit.digit.digit
This does not(yet) accept CIDR /xx notation)

This is the address used by ntop for the pseudo-interface it's receiving the
netflow packets on.  So it acts just like the IP address of a physical
interface, setting local/pseudo-local etc.  If you have a single point
source sending you flows, this is all you need.  Otherwise, you'll need to
use -m to tell ntop which address ranges to treat as local.

Subject: [Ntop] Netflow Interface Configuration


What should the Netflow Interface Configuration (IP address) be set to - a
loopback address, the same as my physical ethernet address, or something
"made up" like what was there after I turned on the netflow plugin
(192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0)?  Does it matter?

I'm running ntop v2.2 on RH 9.

Thank you,
