I have been looking around for a while now, for a piece of software that can sit on a *nix box, and simply export netflows from a promiscuous mode media adapter. For instance; I've become used to using the ip flow-aggregation stuff (specificall for AS), as follows: ip flow-aggregation cache as export destination x.x.x.y 4444 enabled Problem being tho, that on the 6509/MSFC2/PFC platform, to use this, you have to raise the traffic flow out of hardware-switched PFC to MSFC software switching/routing. What I'd like to do is take a unix box, with a gig-e or whatnot interface, mirror traffic to it, and let it generate the flow's to be collected by another machine. Anyone got some pointers, or insight? How are others doing AS flows? -- Alex Rubenstein, AR97, K2AHR, alex@nac.net, latency, Al Reuben -- -- Net Access Corporation, 800-NET-ME-36, http://www.nac.net --
