NetFlow agent (nProbe) only reports server statistics


Hello everyone,

I am trying to monitor server throughput with a centralized ntop instance running as NetFlow aggregator and various NetFlow probes (nProbe, fprobe) on the Servers.

ntop shows the probe as NIC correctly and receives the data, but it only shows one Host under "Hosts", which is the server itself. I expected to see a host list just like it is shown when running ntop locally (i.e. the server ntop runs on and every host he contacted separately).

This happens both when using nProbe and fprobe. Have I misunderstood the concept of NetFlow Aggregation or am I using ntop/nprobe wrong?

Cheers,

ichrispa

Solved: Wrong whitelist (whitelist designates hosts that get netflow-analyzed, not hosts that are permitted to submit flows).

My bad, sry everyone
