Ultimately, ntop monitors all the hosts it sees. This is highly dependent upon where the ntop sensors are placed, but for a typical setup - monitoring both the LAN and WAN interfaces of the router - both hosts referenced by users inside your network plus outsiders connecting to your web server, email, etc. - unless you filter things. A busy network can use a lot of memory - but this is all discussed in exhausting detail in the docs/FAQ and back traffic. Read the docs/FAQ piece about memory usage (and the back traffic on this list).
Without any information about your setup, there's not much help we can offer - see "HowTo Ask for Help" in docs/FAQ. You should probably try the latest cvs version - it's very stable and has a number of memory usage fixes. Plus there are additional parameters vs. the 2.1 and 2.2 versions to tune what you do/don't store. -----Burton > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of > Michael Gale > Sent: Tuesday, January 06, 2004 11:07 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [Ntop] Max hash size ? > > > Hello, > > I was wondering is there a maximum hash size that ntop will > grow to ?
