Feature request: Add mirroring/monitoring port

Post by jaykumar2001 »

Following patch enables mirroring on TL-WR1043ND router. Not sure if its already in the current build.

http://patchwork.openwrt.org/patch/1466/

I would love to run a full real time analysis of my network using ntop. Have worked on ntop earlier but on enterprise hardware.

What about softflowd or fprobe? I see these packages available in openwrt repo. Anyone successful in implementing either of these?

Already using swap, had a 128MB usb stick (really!!).

Not sure if using swap would made any difference unless I am using Tor or something other memory intensive process (proxy)
