Hi, I'm new to nTop and nProbe so please forgive the newbie questions.

 

I'd like to be able to monitor traffic on our backbone switch and we don't
have NetFlow, so it looks like nTop is the way to go.  We are a Window shop
so if I can do it on a Windows server I'd prefer that.  I have setup port
mirroring on the switch and verified that it is working by checking the
mirror port with WireShark.  

 

1.       I have nTop installed on a Windows 2008 server and it's running OK,
but it shows no flow data.   I'm still not sure from reading all the
documentation if I need nProbe to send it flow data or can nTop do flow
collection on its own from a single interface?

2.       If I need nProbe (which I think I do) can I install nProbe for
Windows on the same server as nTop?

3.       During installation, nProbe asks for the nTop IP address and Port
number.  The IP address I know, but what is the port #?  The default is
2055, but if I check the open ports on the nTop server, 2055 is not one of
them.

 

Thanks in advance!

Marty
