What I have in that switch is the LAN of the fw, the WAN of the FW and the
Cisco port. I can enable port monitoring easy enough and I did it on the lan
side of the fw, the wan side, and the cisco port and neer shows anything but
my traffic making me think the port monitor isn't working, or ntop cant
capture the data. ill toss wireshark on just to see if im seeing the packets
and see. Ntop just uses the winpcap driver anyway so not sure what im
missing.

 

Im using Open Extra's pre compiled win32 binaries for ntop and have used it
several times in the past successfully (but always with a hub) between the
LAN and the LAN FW port

Need to make sure you've set all the other ports to be monitored.
Otherwise, the monitoring port doesn't know what traffic you want.

Subject: procurve port monitor

Im trying to run ntop on a pc and using port monitoring on a procurve. Ntop
is running but it only shows me data that I generating from the uit itself. 

 

I used to have a hub that I would drop on the wan side and run it and that
worked but i don't have it available and figured I would be able to use the
port monitor features

 

maybe im not understanding the port monitor function?

 

Thanks
