ntopng on Ubuntu 14.04

I just completed my ntopNG appliance setup. Once more I can look into my network traffic to get an idea of what’s going on.

Below you will find the steps to complete the install

Here are the steps

Log into the ubuntu server host and issue the following commands:

  1. sudo into root: sudo -i
  2. wget http://www.nmon.net/apt-stable/14.04/all/apt-ntop-stable.deb
  3. dpkg -i apt-ntop-stable.deb
  4. apt-get update
  5. apt-get -y install pfring nprobe ntopng ntopng-data n2disk nbox
  6. service apache2 restart

The steps provided here are the official ntop.org directions for their stable build packages.

Please note you will need to have a management and monitoring interface for your configuration.

In my configuration, I will be listening on a mirrored port to capture network traffic to be displayed under ntopNG
