Depending on the switch you have, you can span entire vlans, or just a range of ports..
For example: if you have a cisco switch with 48 ports, and all 48 ports are in vlan 1, and your ntop box is in port 48, you can do "set span 1 2/48 both learning disable" There are probably equivalents on other switches. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of MN Sent: Wednesday, December 07, 2005 3:58 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Ntop] Beginner question Assuming you have a switched network, you have a few options here. 1. On your switch, use port mirroring if it has this feature. or 2. Buy a network tap and place it between the switch and a link you want to monitor. Plug your XP Ntop box on the tap. or 3. Place a hub between the switch and a link you want to monitor. Then, plug your XP Ntop box on the hub. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mario E Caballero Sent: Wednesday, December 07, 2005 11:15 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Ntop] Beginner question Hello, I just installed ntop on a Windows xp sp2 machine. I was wondering how/what I need to change to capture data from the entire subnet and not only data getting to my NIC card. I am sure this is a simple and easy question but I cannot find an answer on everything that I have searched.
