Ok, I've managed to get the 750 to throw data at my ntop set up and can
see all sorts of stuff.
Now I want to know what I should do/use next.
I see it doesn't seem to talk about interfaces on the 750 but IP
addresses. I guess that's fine for what I'm interested in.
My next challenge is, how do I get the data in a form I want to see it?
For starters I want to know how much data my wife[1] has used. Now to
make it more interesting, she has two computers - for the sake of
argument we'll assume they're 192.168.88.2 and .3. How do I
consolidate her systems?
I'm interested in knowing two or three things:
1. How much local traffic does she generate - ie data to 192.168.88.0/24
2. How much internet traffic does she generate - ie data to things that
are not 88.0/24 and xx.0/24
3. How much traffic does she generate to xx.0/24?
xx.0/24 is another subnet on the same router, eg my neighbour who may be
sharing my internet connection.
I also want to know these stats for each day and each month.
I also want to be able to put a daily and monthly limit on her. ie/eg,
when she's used (ourISPMonthlyDataLimit/2People/30Days) I want to know
about it and then tell the router to do something... perhaps I'll block
her, perhaps I'll just email her and tell her to ease off, perhaps I'll
slow her CIR/BIR.
How do I present all this info? How do I get at it?
Yes, basically I'm currently trying to build a mini ISP billing/traffic
system for my house.
[1] Wife, son, dog, cat... basically other internet user in the house.

Hi,
I've got a MikroTik RB 750G router. I understand it can spit out
netflow of some kind.
I want to set up to catch the data and know how much traffic has moved
over each eth port and how much each eth port has sent to the internet.
eth0 - Internet
eth1 - lan - my pc
eth2 - lan - the wifes pc
eth3 - lan - the voip ATA
eth4 - who cares, you get the idea.
I do have a much larger project in mind, but right now I'm just
wanting to do a basic proof of concept and learn all the bits for myself.
So my question is where do I start?
I've read over bits of the ntop web site. I've read the 57 page pdf -
http://www.ntop.org/ntop_012011.pdf very cool by the way...
I'm running a debian vm on my machine and have installed ntop using
apt-get.
I know it has a web interface but so far having found the url to view
it. The host ip is 192.168.2.7.
Where should I start?
