Packet Analizer ?

Post by AcornSquash »

Hi I am new to Cacti and am getting on ok with setting up various graphs etc.

However I would like to report on network traffic by protocol eg smtp, httpd, dns etc.

Is this possible ? so far I have not found any plugins or templates to do this.

I second that. My employer is looking for graphing solution , and looks like Cacti fits (not sure yet - just discovered Cacti by Google :oops: ), and network traffic split by protocol would by nice-to-have thing..

There aren't any plugins that do this natively, however, if you are looking at getting NETFLOW stats etc, then you could have a look at Scrutinizer. It's free as well.
Cacti Version 0.8.8b
Cacti OS Ubuntu LTS
RRDTool Version RRDTool 1.4.7
Poller Information
Type SPINE 0.8.8b

Also nfsen. We run this alongside Cacti to collect netflow data from our edge and aggregation routers.
Weathermap 0.98a is out! & QuickTree 1.0. Superlinks is over there now (and built-in to Cacti 1.x).
Some Other Cacti tweaks, including strip-graphs, icons and snmp/netflow stuff.
(Let me know if you have UK DevOps or Network Ops opportunities, too!)
