Pardon what's probably a pretty simple request from a newbie, I was
wondering what the simplest way is to support multiple routers exporting
flow data to one server. Looked through the mailing list archives but
nothing just jumped out at me that's quite what I had in mind. Here's
what we're after:
When using Cisco's NFCollector, multiple routers export data to the same
port on the server, and nfcollector just seems to "handle it," writing
daily data for each into a separate subdirectory of the
/opt/CSCOnfc/Data tree based on the router's IP addr. What's the easiest
way to get flow-tools to do the same ?
My guess was to have multiple instances of flow-capture running, each
with a different "-w" path and with "0/routerip/9995" But I was
wondering if the different instances of flow-capture could handle all
the data coming in on the one port (9995) and be able to sort things out
w/o problems. Are there more elegant ways to do this ? If I have just
one flow-capture running with "0/0/9995" so it dumps all the flows into
on data file, could I use the other flow-tools to tease out the data
from the individual routers later ?
Thanks,
