fprobe on 7390?

[bwatson]

Hello,

Please excuse my use of English, I am from Australia and can't speak or read/write German.

I have a Fritz!box 7390 and I would like to be able to monitor traffic flows. My children use too much of my network and I want to know what they are doing

I built and installed freetz-trunk-9782 with a patch for fprobe. The box runs fine and I can start fprobe and send traffic data to ntop. However with minimal traffic it runs at about 80% CPU and as soon as I generate any real traffic it goes to 100% CPU and drops most packets.

Does anyone have better experience with fprobe?

Is there a better netflow probe for my 7390? I don't need freetz for any other reason, only installed it to run netflow probe so am open to any suggestions...

Thanks,

Brian

I'm sure there are alternatives to fprobe. I've not that much experience with this but I remember a thread in here using iptables to cover this topic. The OP in the named thread had some issues, but did not come up with the current status and it may be worth to check anyway.

This is the thread I'm referring to: http://www.ip-phone-forum.de/showthread.php?t=256369

Did you check all the extra packages in freetz as well?

Hi bwatson

Please excuse my use of bad English

It sounds you need the use of darkstat and monitor all traffic on routers dsl interface.

hope that helps
