Modern Packet Capture and Analysis: Multi-Core, Multi-Gigabit, and Beyond
Sometimes people ask me a tutorial about PF_RING. Last year I have given a tutorial about it at the IM 2009 conference. I think that everyone interested in using PF_RING for going beyond packet capture acceleration should read this set of slides I used for the tutorial. Today the cost of packet capture is limited with respect to packet analysis. For this reason you should use PF_RING as a framework for creating simple yet powerful traffic monitoring applications. …

nProbe with FastBit database: an innovative flows storage solution
nProbe, acronym for NetFlow probe, is an open-source probe that supports both NetFlow and sFlow collection. It has been designed to keep up with Gigabit speeds on commodity hardware and it can be used for capturing packets and analyzing networks at full speed with no (or very moderate) packet loss using PF_RING. Each captured packet is analyzed, associated to a flow record, and periodically, the expired flows are emitted and exported to the specified collectors. nProbe is fully inter-operable with commercial collectors and open source tools such as ntop. The …
