Hello, I''ve collected a passel of flow data as part of a stress test on my network. Now I need an analysis package which can make sense of the data, with a minimum of report writing and etc on my part. What analysis package is recommended which can work with flowd data? I had the idea to nfsen, but can''t figure out how to get the flowd data into nfdump format. Tips would be greatly appreciated, as I need to report on this test by tomorrow.

Maybe I''m missing something, but it seems flow-tools won''t read flowd logs directly - I need to flow-reader to ascii, then import into flow-tools us flow-import. flow-import requires csv input, and a mask specifying which fields are included in the import. So to make this work I need to 0. figure out which fields I need for flow-tools netflow V5 1. write a script to format flow-reader output to csv with right fields. 2. write a script to figure how how the "right fields" map to flow-tools field masks 3. import the csv file.. Any suggestions to make this easier? thanks, Matt ____________________________________________________________________________________ Take the Internet to Go: Yahoo!Go puts the Internet in your pocket: mail, news, photos & more. http://mobile.yahoo.com/go?refer=1GNXIC
