    Hi David,

    This should be the same issue experienced by Aaron due to frame
    padding. Please check out the other thread.

    Regards,

    Hi Simone,

    Thanks for the advice. The --ignore-vlans option seems to help as
    I do not see the duplicates anymore.
    I do have vlans on my network but it is not a problem for me not
    to have this separated in the display.

    Now I still get odd alerts about HTTP requests not being
    answered. I'll investigate a bit further but it seems VERY
    similar to the issue Aaron and Emanuele are discussing in parallel.
    And, on top of that, it seems Aaron is also using a Unifi device
    (not the same model but I think the OSes are). Could this be a
    pointer to the root cause of our issues?

    Thanks again.

        When you monitor just port 1, apart from the DNS queries
        unanswered alerts, do you get bi-directional traffic if you
        look at the flows page? Do you see the @1?

        @1 means VLAN=1 so VLAN-tagged packets are received from the
        mirror port. VLAN depend on your switch configuration. If you
        can disregard VLANs you can use option --ignore-vlans

        I am not sure the traffic is duplicated. It could be that
        ntopng is keeping the two directions of every flow separated
        due to the VLAN. Let's continue the investigation depending
        on your responses.

        cases on port 1.
