Introduction

Network Management Course projects include:

1. Netflow
2. NetXMS

Netflow

Netflow Exporter

• Install OVS

  sudo apt install openvswitch-switch

• Create OVS

  # creation
  sudo ovs-vsctl add-br br0

• There are two steps involved in attaching a NetFlow monitor to a bridge:

  • defining the monitor
  • linking a bridge to monitor

  Because vSwitch is aggressive about cleaning unlinked database records, the definition of the NetFlow configuration should be done at the same time as its first attachment.

  ovs−vsctl −− set Bridge br0 netflow=@nf −− −−id=@nf create NetFlow targets=\"10.10.10.10\"

Netflow Collector

nProbe: An Extensible NetFlow v5/v9/IPFIX Probe for IPv4/v6. nProbe can act as a probe, proxy and collector and you can configure it to do so.

NetXMS

Let's use it's docker for having lots of fun.
