Greetings - 

   I'm new to ntop but it looks like it will meet my needs.  Two
questions at the moment:

 

1)      From my experience on a quick XP and a quick Ubuntu install,
ntop is accessible from http://ip.address:3000.  I'll need my next box
outside our firewall on a public IP.  How can I lock down the box so
it's only accessible by me, and not out there on the Net to be sniffed
and accessed?  (This next box could be Ubuntu or XP per your
suggestions.)

2)      I want monitor one VLAN(/subnet) on our network.  All of our
switches are HPs.  I suspect I should set the port into which the ntop
box is plugged to be a "monitoring port" for the "point of presence"
port of the VLAN I want to monitor.  Is this correct?

 

   As I mentioned, I'm new to ntop.  I'm only slightly less new to a lot
of this networking stuff.

 

   Thanks for your help! - JD
