Read up and learn about how a switch works.

There's an entry in docs/FAQ to get you started.

"Q. ntop doesn't report any traffic at all"

and the entire section, 

"Networks, Network cards and Networking"

> Hey there, 
> I setup linux ntop box to monitor my home network. It is running 
> red hat fedora core 1. 
> The problem is that it wont display remote data traffic. And it 
> only displays its own traffic and the ssh session with my windows 
> machine. I went through some ntop archives. Still no luck. 
> But the box can capture traffic in my work place. 
> So I got stuck in this situation.
> I am just wondering if the ntop got something to do with switches 
> and hubs. At my home I use dynalink switches(100M), at my work 
> place, we use a 24 port baynetwork 10M HUB.
> Could someone please shed some light on this problem?
>  
> Cheers,
