Question Netflow v5 daemon for collecting traffic


Hey guys,

I have been looking at implimenting nxfilter and to monitor bandwidth, it requires netflow v5. Does anyone know of a decent netflow probe (thats free) that can collect data (using standard formats) and can feed that into the collector running on nxfilter?

Thanks

Jared

Hey! Yes, exactly the same type of tool but unfortunately, nprobe is a paid for product. Thats not the biggest problem though because I don't mind buying it. The major issue is that its export is not standard formats, so it won't work with nxfilter. Any other suggestions? Anyone have any experience with softflowd or nfcapd?

Thanks
