Continuous packet recorders are devices that capture network traffic and save it to disk. The term continuous means that this activity is performed “continuously” until the device is active and not just for a few minutes. At ntop we have developed two companion applications to be used on a packet recorder: n2disk is a software […]
Introduction ntop users are familiar with n2disk and the nBox web interface that ease its use. As you know, the nBox includes a small web-based tool that allows you to preview pcap contents. This tool is good for having an idea of what a pcap contains but it not a fully fledged application. On the […]
The main criticism to ntop is the lack of documentation. This is because we have to maintain many projects, have little time, and also because we prefer coding to documentation. We decided to fill this gap and give a positive answer to your requests: We have created the nBox GUI to enable you to use […]
If you need a network probe or a packet recorder you have two options. Grab a turn-key nBox or built it yourself using our software. In the first case you will receive a optimised system, with the right motherboard/CPU/NIC for your monitoring tasks and all software preinstalled/configured. However if you want to build yourself your nBox […]
Years ago we decided to create the nBox appliance as turn-key solution for those that were not fans of the command line. Then we decided to rewrite the nBox GUI to make it simpler, more modern, and usable by all ntop users, to configure ntop, nProbe, n2disk, PF_RING and DNA. In essence we have […]
Packet recorder appliances are one of the last network components that have insane prices. Years ago this was justified by the fact that in order to capture traffic at high speed it was mandatory to use costly custom packet capture cards and often custom-designed hardware. With the advent of multi-10 Gbit packet capture technologies on […]
