Luca,

Mark and I went to check the "old" way:

$ ntop --help | grep 'dump file'
    [-f <file>      | --traffic-dump-file <file>]         Traffic dump file
(see tcpdump)

No such option in ntopng, whereas the --help is not obvious in the fact
that:

ntopng [...] [-i <iface>]

could actually include <trafic dump file>, also, as you indicated below.

Thanks,
Stefan
