HowTo Configure Flow Collection in nProbe and ntopng
In flow (sFlow/NetFlow/IPFIX) collection, nProbe acts as a “flow processor” for ntopng . nProbe is responsible for sending ntopng flows after they have been processed that includes Probe mode. nProbe captures network packets that are converted into flows that are then exported to ntopng. Collection mode. nProbe collects flows produced by a probe such as a router. Flow normalization that is the process of converting flows on a format that ntopng can understand. This happens if flow exporter devices (e.g. a router) use custom information elements. In addition nProbe takes care …
