Hi!

I am looking for a free, high-performance netflow probe for a linux box.
Ths box is routing max. 100 Mbit traffic and has two 1.2 GHz Xeon CPUs
and lots of RAM.

I'd like to aggregate with host breadown (for a small internal net with
about 100 hosts) or maybe on port, using a small ports_file.

I'm planning to collect this netflow on another host using nfacctd.

So far, I'm thinking about three possible solutions:

- pmacctd using libpcap-mmap and the nfprobe plugin
- fprobe and libpcap-mmap
- fprobe-ulog and iptables ULOG targets

How about your experiences with these approaches?
Which is the most preferrable one?

Are there any advantages/disadvantages in using sflow instead of netflow?

Cheers,
--leo
