Analyze traffic router Mikrotik

RouterOS General
1

Hi,
I am sending all information to my linux server using Traffic Flow in Mikrotik but I would to like know how could I analyze that info. I tried ntop but I don’t like. Are there other options?

Thanks.

On CLI and in scipts (for simply tasks|views) we are using commands from flow-tools (flow-cat, flow-print, flow-stat ..).

Thanks, do you use that tools on another linux server, right?

I would like to see stats on any GUI, I don’t know if its possible (free or pay)

Yes, on server where netflow are saved (flow-capture). About GUI: sorry, I don’t have experience.

Hi MartinT, I installed but at the momment I hadn’t much time to deploy it, but I have a doubt, with netflow and any tool could I have stats from IP, MAC, traffic, etc, not only in that same moment if not saving graphs or logs.

Thanks.

This may be overkill for what you are trying to do but you could setup something like Graylog with NetFlow plugin

Yes, with saved netflow data you can make historical stats/graphs with suitable tools. I am not sure about MAC addresses, IMHO RouterOS does not support it.

Thanks all. I will try to setup it correctly. I will post if I get any usable :slight_smile:

Finally I have installed Graylog + Netflow plugin as kamillo advice me.
Its works fine, graphs are pretty :slight_smile:

Thanks!
