Err....

Let me clarify a little.

By 'separate out the traffic', I mean 'make sure that each host is reported
correctly according to its IP address' - I don't mean anything like a
separate web page, or anything like that. Although, if that's what it
takes....

|Subject: [Ntop] mac address associated with incorrect host
|
|
|All,
|
|Perhaps I'm dim, but I think I'm missing something. I've read 
|the man page
|for ntop, and can't seem to figure this out - I don't think that the -o
|option is correct, but I'm willing to listen to an alternative opinion.
|
|I am very interested in tracking the remote sites' traffic, 
|and the local
|traffic, but I've found that ntop doesn't do well on our 
|network with the
|volume of Internet traffic, so I'm using --track-local-hosts 
|to keep the
|excess traffic from being logged, and using --local-subnet to 
|tell ntop to
|keep track of the foreign offices who are attached to us via our IPSec
|tunnels.
|
|I've got a host at 192.168.61.8 (in AU) that seems to have had 
|attached to
|it the MAC address for our firewall locally (in the US, and 
|the firewall's
|address is 192.168.6.9), and ntop is reporting all traffic 
|against the MAC
|address of the firewall as coming from the remote host. The 
|ntop host is on
|a hub with the firewall, so it's listening to all of the 
|traffic transiting
|the firewall.
|
|Is there any way I can separate out the traffic? Does this 
|require the use
|of the -o option?
|
|ntop.conf, minus the comments, is below my .sig
