I'm monitoring a 45mbps link with ntop. At any time it's approximately using 27mbps. I want to monitor it with NTOP. I would like ntop to gather historical data also. My question is, in this scenario, are there are configuration options that may be beneficial or recommendations you can make to ensure ntop doesn't crash or easily run out of resources.
