Feature request: Application Grouping
Hello, Once Again, a superb product. Would you consider a new feature to be added into your Roadmap? Specifically, the ability to group "Applications" together. For example, I would like to classify edonkey2000, kazza, bittorrent, etc.. all under one "Application Group" called "P2P Applications". I realize I could simply rename all those individual Applications as the same name, and NFA would consider them all the same application. However, I would lose "granularity" of which P2P app it was. Likewise,
Connecting to Netflow Database
I installed NFA on a linux box in which I already had mysql running. This database is used by another application. After installing NFA as far as I can see I have two instances of mysql running ( on two different ports) NFA seems to be running fine but I can not access the database netflow manually. I tried using "mysql -u root --port=13310 netflow" and I get "ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO)" How can I make sure that it's there? thanks, Alban
Some problems
Hi, I'm experiencing strange problems evaluating NFA. The server dies in 10-15 minutes after starting up. I've noticed, that MySQL database is now approx. 2 Gb. Is it ok? Thanks! Denis.
One-minute updates
I know that v5 has one-minute granularity for up to 15 days, but is it possible get the charts to update every minute? It is helpful to have one-minute granularity, but it would be especially helpful for troubleshooting if we didn't have to wait ten minutes to see new data. Thanks! John
Unable to configure Cisco 1700 to export data
I have just downloaded the trial version of the NetFlow ver 4 and test it on my Cisco 1700. However, I cannot complete the configuration of the router as some of the commands are not available in the router IOS. These commands include: server-name(config-if)#ip route-cache flow....the route-cache only has 'policy' and 'same-interface' options. server-name(config)#ip flow-export...there is no 'flow-export' after ip command. Can anybody assist me? Thanks.
XP Install help
Product looks really slick, but I'm having problems with a new install of the 4020 build demo I downloaded. I have tested some other NetFlow collectors so I know the router is config'd correctly. For the fun of it I verified that the traffic was coming to the collecter with correct port with a protocol analyzer. Netstat tells me that the correct udp port is open on the box. The Windows firewall is turned off. The netflowraw files are being created in the mysql\data\netflow directory so the data appears

Not seeing all data
I cannot see all data from a specific IP. I am trying to see all http traffic between two devices but no http traffic is showing up. I know the traffic is there because I am initiating it and getting the webpage on port 80. I have created an IP group with the two device ip's and picked the vlan(routed) interfaces that the two devices are connected to. Please advise.

Netflow Integration
Hello, I want to know do you have any plans of integrating Netflow analyzer with Solar Winds ORION Network Performance Monitor (NPM)? as Scrutunizer netflow enterprise edition allows you to integrate with ORION NPM which is very useful for our company needs. Please let me know weather you have any plans to integrate with ORION NPM? thanks, Ali
Interface Descriptions Not Showing Correctly
Hello, I am in the eval period of NFA and have a quick question: One of my core frame-relay routers is a newer Cisco 2835 that is setup with ATM/IMA frame interfaces instead of your typical Serial with sub-interfaces and PVC's defined. Within the config, I have: interface ATM0/IMA3.125 point-to-point description Frame-Relay link to Indy But for whatever reason, NFA is showing that router's interfaces as IfIndex2, 14, 16, etc and it carries no correspondence whatsoever. I have to look at the source
FreeBSD and sampling support
We're considering Netflow Analyzer for use in our network, but had a few questions. Is there any plan for official FreeBSD support, and failing that has anyone had success running under Linux emulation on Freebsd Secondly, is there any way to configure a sample rate for a router? We have sampled netflow coming from Juniper routers without Monitoring PIC, so doing unsampled is not an option. Other Netflow analysis tools allow the configuration of a sampling rate for received traffic, allowing a more

NFA 5 beta - IP Groups Question
I am trying to configure an IP Group to represent a complex site with lots of networks. After adding around 15 networks into the group, I start getting a Page Cannot Be Displayed error when I hit the Add button. A browser refresh gets around this. Once I hit 20 networks, I can't seem to go any further - hitting the Add button shows a brief 'Done, but with errors' message in the browser status bar but it does not add any more networks to the group. Is this limit of 20 networks in a Group is a feature
High Netflow Bandwidth Usage
I am currently monitoring a Cisco router network. Currently the netflow data appears on the top 5 application usage across the WAN links. Is there any configuration i can applied to reduce this.
Real Traffic
Hi, How can I know the real traffic for one host? I mean, real MB traffic IN/OUT for one server I have. This server is connected through Serial XX/X (on a cisco router)....More especific, I have in my intranet a Microsoft Live Comunications Server (MS_LCS 2003) and I want to know the real traffic passing this Serial interface. But, I am confused with source/destination/conversation tabs from NFA. Can you help me understand? regards Israel
Interface Discovery in Beta 5.0
I'm finding that when I enable netflow on a router and add the ip route-cache flow command to and interface, after several minutes other interface indexes appear, without issuing the command. How is NFA adding these interface automatically and is this a feature or a bug? Thanks in advance. Jennifer

NetFlow Analyzer vs Packeteer reporting discrepancies
Hi, I have just found this wonderful product the gives me the granular (source-destination) reporting that my Packeteer is poor on (without spending more money on thier reporting tool than the box itself). The Packteer box is configured to send netflow-5 data to the NetFlow Analyzer server. However I have noticed that over the same reporting period (e.g. 7am to 8am - report run at 9:30am the same day) there is a discrepancy in the number of MB for both in and out traffic between the Packeteer and

no outbound traffic on interface
I have setup a Netflow anlayzer to monitor my router. My router consists of two interfaces E0 & E1. The Netflow analyzer machine is placed at the E1 segment. I have enabled netflow on both interface. I find that there are no outbound traffic on E1 interface in Netflow analyzer traffic report. Is it correct? How to fix it?
Reporting Does Not Match
Hello, I am testing the software and I noticed that everytime I run a report for different time periods, the data does not seem to match. For example, if I run a Utilization report from "2006-01-03 05:00" to "2006-01-03 06:00", it returns the data including the Max percentage. Let's say the Max percentage is 75%. I then run a report from "2006-01-03 00:00" to ""2006-01-03 06:00" which covers the same time period as the original report. The Max percentage comes back as 50%. I am wondering why the

I setup a Netflow analyzer to monitor my router. My router has two interfaces E0 and E1. The netflow analyzer machine is placed at the E1 side. I found that there was no outbound traffic on E1 side in the Netflow analyzer. I have enabled both interfaces for netflow. Is it correct? How can I fix it?

Monitor Non-standard Bittorrent Traffic
My Cisco router 1841 will detect Bittorrent traffic correctly using NBAR whether or not it uses the standard 6881-6889 port. However, when viewing the application report in Netflow Analyzer 4, pretty much all bittorrent traffic goes under the TCP_App category, very few actually went to the bittorrent category. Is there anything I can do or configure so that it will capture non-standard bittorrent traffic to the right category?
Adding a New Device

Cant start NFA
Ive just setup a server with Windows Server 2003 and i installed NFA build 4020. However when i try to start NFA it gives a message Failed to start the server. Please refer logs for more details.

V5.0 Timeout issues
The Beta seems to work pretty well overall. I was wondering about a couple of things tho..... The application will timeout and direct you back to the logon screen - Question is there a way to change this timeout setting? Once you have been reidrected to the logon screen - I am experiencing an issue that rquires me to completely quit the management program and restart it in order to log back in. Is this a known issue?
How long is data stored
How long does NFA store data for? Also how much data is stored? Does NFA keep the application (port data) for this time also? Thanks
