ntopng

High-Speed Web-based Traffic Analysis and Flow Collection Tool

Description

ntopng is the next generation version of the original ntop, a network traffic probe that shows the network usage, similar to what the popular top Unix command does. ntop is based on libpcap and it has been written in a portable way in order to virtually run on every Unix platform, MacOSX and on Win32 as well.

ntopng users can use a web browser to navigate through ntop (that acts as a web server) traffic information and get a dump of the network status. In the latter case, ntop can be seen as a simple RMON-like agent with an embedded web interface. The use of:

 * a web interface
 * limited configuration and administration via the web interface
 * reduced CPU and memory usage (they vary according to network size and
 traffic)

What ntopng can do:
 * Sort network traffic according to many protocols
 * Show network traffic and IPv4/v6 active hosts
 * Store on disk persistent traffic statistics in RRD format
 * Geolocate hosts
 * Discover application protocols by leveraging on nDPI, ntop’s DPI
   framework
 * Characterise HTTP traffic by leveraging on characterisation services
   provided by block.si. ntopng comes with a demo characterisation key, but if
   you need a permanent one, please mail info@block.si
 * Show IP traffic distribution among the various protocols
 * Analyse IP traffic and sort it according to the source/destination
 * Display IP Traffic Subnet matrix (who’s talking to who?)
 * Report IP protocol usage sorted by protocol type
 * Act as a NetFlow/sFlow collector for flows generated by routers (e.g.
   Cisco and Juniper) or switches (e.g. Foundry Networks) when used together
   with nProbe
 * Produce HTML5/AJAX network traffic statistics
