HowTo Analyse NetFlow/IPFIX/sFlow pcap Traces
Dumping sFlow/NetFlow/IPFIX flows in pcap format can be very useful for troubleshooting or for creating a compact traffic dump. For instance you can dump flow traffic with n2disk (wireshark, or...
View ArticleHowTo Use Cloud Licenses
As discussed in our spring webinar, it is now possible to use (in beta) cloud licenses with ntopng and nProbe. Contrary to standard licenses that are bound to a physical system (based on the systemId),...
View ArticleHowTo Use nProbe to Detect and Shape Traffic Using DPI
Not all the nProbe users know that they can use nProbe not just as a passive monitoring tool, but also for shaping and dropping netwok traffic based on DPI. Ryan Claridge has filled the gap by writing...

This is to announce that Cento 2.0 is out! This new major release introduces many new great features. First of all it adds support for offloading flows to Napatech SmartNICs featuring Flow Manager....
View ArticleHowTo 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 Collection mode:...
View ArticleHow To Implement Packet and Flow Deduplication
Depending on the network topology and configuration, your monitoring tools can receive the same traffic multiple times. This problem is called data duplication. Duplication can happen at packet or flow...
