use the .1Q vlan ability in linux to create an interface you can read
http://www.candelatech.com/~greear/vlan.html#setup
you should be able to get NTOP to listen to eth0.6 according to your tcpdump
below.
the .6 ending on the alias specifies which vlan you are on ( in this case 6 ).
note that is a period not full colon as in an alias interface .. a vlan
interface rides the physical interface just as an alias interface does but is
specified differently (ie periods instead of colons).

Subject: [Ntop] VLAN Tags
Iâve been reading through the documentation and the forums but I havenât
found a clear answer to this question, so I figure it canât hurt to ask it.
Iâm running NTOP on an install of Fedora. It works fine when I plug it into
my local network. I set up a mirrored port of our internal firewall port to use to
monitor traffic using NTOP. When I switched NTOP to this other interface I only
receive OSI/Bridge/VLAN traffic. After looking at the tcpdump of the interface I
realize that the traffic is being VLAN tagged.
Example:
tcpdump -i eth1
tcpdump: listening on eth1

Iâm still researching the possibility of stripping these VLAN tags off, but
I was hoping someone could point me to perhaps something in my configuration or
compiled version of NTOP Iâm running.
This port is being mirrored from a Cisco Catalyst 6509. The non-mirrored port
runs between the 6509 (Core switch) and the firewall (A Cisco pix 5225).
This is how Iâm starting NTOP: ntop -i eth1 -m 192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0 -w
8080 âd
Iâm running NTOP version 2.2. Iâm hoping that there is support for VLAN
tags, but I didnât compile it when I built NTOP. Any help or suggestions would be
appreciated. Thanks!
