Flowview

[socain]

How can you have netflow / flowview seperate the flows by devices? My flows are thrown together as one and the device dropdown in flowview is empty.

Here is the command I launch flowview with:
flow-capture -w /var/netflow/flows/completed -E5G 0/0/9996 -S5

Thanks!

Anyone have an answer for this?
I have the same question, I have two devices both sending data to the same directory, and can use flowview to view flows but the 'device' drop down is empty.

Hi,

Although I use nfcapd -which is a netflow collector daemon and part of nfdump tools- this may help.
It is starts with the folowing command.
nfcapd -w -D -I router1 -p 3000 -u netflow -g www-data -B 200000 -S 1 -l /opt/nfsen/profiles-data/live/router1 -P /opt/nfsen/var/run/router1.pid

This creates a router1 dir and logs are created in a subdirs for every day.

Full flowcap file path looks like this:
/opt/nfsen/profiles-data/live/router1/year/month/day/nfcapd.200711301640
