Hi,

I need some help figuring out if ntop does this graphing tool that I'm
trying to implement using sFlow.  What I want to do is graph the traffic
load on each source/destination IP address pair. 

We need to sort the sFlow information by source/destination IP address.
Therefore, the fields I need from the sFlow samples are the destination
and source IP addresses at layer 3, so that I can graph the traffic on
each link from one IP address to another.  Our simulation uses multiple
IP addresses on each NIC.  Therefore, each physical port on the switch
will be associated with multiple IP addresses.     

The switch we are using is configured as a layer 2 switch, but we would
like it to extract the layer 3 source and destination IP addresses.  We
do need to add up the traffic by source/destination IP address pairs.
It is not required to get TCP port information, but it would be nice to
be able to collect transport protocol and port numbers.  We would like
to make our graphing tool update at a minimum of every 10 seconds, and
hopefully more often than that.  The goal is to graph bandwidth over
time separately for each source/destination IP address using only sFlow
information obtained from the switch.
