Paolo, You'll get the best/most information by directly mirroring the port to Ntop. Ntop sees it ALL - not passed through any sort of filter or process beforehand (unless you configure a filter, of course).
Chris -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Paolo Supino Sent: Tuesday, August 09, 2005 2:44 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Ntop] ntop and netflow Hi I have a trunk link that is connected to a Cisco 3550 switch that I want to monitor. I thought of useing netflow to collect the information from the Cisco switch, but it turned out that the switch doesn't support netflow. So I thought of mirroring the trunk and letting NTOP collect all the information from the link directly. My question is: Do I have to use NTOP as a netflow collector or can NTOP display the same information without using its netflow capabilities.
