They are set in reportUtils.c based on fairly self-obvious functions: Medium: hasWrongNetmask() High: hasDuplicatedMac() Often seen if you are monitoring a backbone or common network (high) or if you have cloned MAC addresses for, say, a home Firewall box." It sounds like you’ve got some good ideas for both documentation and/or changing the behavior of ntop. It’s pretty simple: make ntop do what YOU want and submit the patch to Luca. If it solves a general problem, then he’s always happy to have the help. -----Burton From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tomas Larsson Sent: Saturday, June 12, 2010 11:51 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Ntop] Warning flags? Then an explanation why it thinks its an warning would be a good idea. For example, why should it warn for “wrong netmask” I ´cant figure out why this warning is there. Warnings (or errors) that are not correct does not fill any purpose. Why should it warn for susoicius behavior on tom many host contacts, when the actual hoos shuld have many contacts. Some sort of configuration for these warnings would be good, otherwise they fill absolutely no purpose, just dead code that weights to much.

That’s why they are warnings, vs. errors – we don’t KNOW it’s a problem, but it has tripped a simple-minded test. -----Burton From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tomas Larsson Sent: Saturday, June 12, 2010 10:31 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Ntop] Warning flags? Whats the point with them, since they obviously aren’t correct anyway.

Somethings can be tweaked, and maybe disabled in "globals-defines.h", which will require a recompile. Others I think are deeper in the source. To my knowledge there is no "easy" way to get rid of / tune these, but check the man, FAQ, and online (embedded) doc to be sure. _____ From: [email protected] <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Sent: Sat Jun 12 08:10:37 2010 Subject: [Ntop] Warning flags? How do I disable all these ”error” flags that reports errors when there aren’t any.

Compiled and up and running, since half an hour or so. One thing I’ve noticed, it only sees half of the hosts on the local network Furthermore, my CENTOS 5.3(5) router/GW is identified as Win95 My CENTOS 5.3 server is identified as linux 2.4 With Best regards Tomas Larsson Sweden www.ebaman.com Från: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] För Tomas Larsson Skickat: den 10 juni 2010 12:48 Till: [email protected] Ämne: Re: [Ntop] Possible errors in the latest release. Thanks, will do over the weekend. For now, I’ve deleted everything in the data-dir (/var/ntop) except the ntop–pw.db file, restarted, and it seems to work, at least for now. My guess is that ntop screwed up something and couldn’t recover from it.
