Adrian:
B is :
-B <kilobytes> Kernel capture buffer size [0]
In my opinion, it means that fprobe will take:
B packets of S length before processing and sending as netflow data.
If it is ok , it is the packets queue length.
Also you have the "q" flag , witch in my opinion is the queue length for
a traffic/data burst.
It would be great if someone can clarify this.
Regards,
Leo.

Glad to hear you sorted it out! What does -B stand for (I haven't used
fprobe)? UDP buffer?

Adrian, finally I got it working properly.
Reading the man page for fprobe I founded the following:
Reasonable configuration to run under heavy load:
fprobe -fip -B4096 -r2 -q10000 -t10000:10000000 localhost:2055
After applying the B , r and q parameters I got the complete
traffic shape.
Also at fprobe server , any performance parameter showed some
increment so I think it is working
Thanks for your advice.

Hmm, if the source machine doesn't have enough resources to
export the flows, you should see things like - a core being used
100% by fprobe or udp packets being dropped because of too small
buffers in the output of netstat -s (check on both source and
destination). You could use iptables to count packets leaving the
source vs packets arriving at the destination to rule out network
drops in between with something like
iptables -A OUTPUT -m udp --dport 9995 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -m udp --dport 9995 -j ACCEPT
And check stats with
iptables -l -n -v
But it's difficult to troubleshoot...

Adrian , thanks for your response.
About sampling ... Im not sure what is it but im running the
fprobe just with the line:
/usr/local/sbin/fprobe -i eth3 -fip -n7 172.24.3.12:9995
<http://172.24.3.12:9995>
Which in a case o a traffic bellow than 1gbps works great.
In my case the message you are describing "Sequence errors or
bad packets"
Apears many times in the collector log file, so there is some
problem ,but;
How can I confirm if the problem is on the nfcapd or the
fprobe side ? Can I modify on something on any side to
properly export more than 1.4Gbps ?
Both machine where they are running are very powerfull machines.
I can provide more info
Thanks in advance!!!

If you're using sampling you should see differences between
netflow traffic and real traffic. If not, check that:
1. you're not losing UDP packets - if you lose packets you
should see something like this:
Dec 4 09:35:00 localhost nfcapd[13268]: Ident: 'MyRouter'
Flows: 11763, Packets: 930064, Bytes: 731126982, Sequence
Errors: 0, Bad Packets: 0
Sequence errors or bad packets will indicate something's
wrong on the network side.
2. your router has enough capacity (TCAM memory) to export
all the flows
If you get errors in your router's log that TCAM memory is
nearly exhausted, then the router will stop producing flows
for a while and you get those drops at higher traffic.

Hi , guys.
It is very strange but , my nfsen is showing a maximun
traffic value of
1.2 gbps when the traffic showed on cacti is 2gbps(also
meassured on the
router).
Traffic shape is ok , minimun values mathes on both tools.
Any ideas about it ? Is there something to tune on
fprobe, nfcapd or
nfsen ?

Leandro.
