Hi Group,
I have using shorewall with NFLOG to log my traffic network.
IPTABLES is "capture" the traffic using NFLOG, which then sent to ULOG2
which then goes into a DB like MYSQL.
So far so good, cause everything is working fine.
However I have some questions in mind and I know it is not relevant to
shorewall, but maybe someone could help me here, or even tell me what is
the mail for the ulog group.
1. How does NFLOG works? Does it somehow related to PCAP?
What I understand is that NFLOG is working in non-promiscuous while using
PCAP is running in promiscuous mode, but I still not sure if I'm right here.
2. ULOG2 has support to work with pcap (
http://rlworkman.net/howtos/ulogd.html) so I can generate log file which
can then be analyse with tcpdump.
3. I saw this http://sourceforge.net/projects/ipt-netflow/ and this
https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg08578.html
since I
want to have shorewall generate netflow format to netflow collector.
There is http://www.3open.org/d/voyage/setup_netflow_exporter and
http://sourceforge.net/projects/fprobe/ which seems can do that, but not
sure if shorewall support it.
Can someone help me better understand the relation with
NFLOG + PCAP + NETFLOW + SFLOW
Thanks you
Sassy
