  1. @da_667 it is civilized to proxy that shit (it is the vast majority of the traffic, mostly) and use your own certs, should you proxy through yacy and spider every site you visit? should you use squid proxy to speed up browsing? those options are left to the reader - they all work and you can get reports - are most smb going to do lots of threat hunting probably not but they may go hybrid #unknown binary #ntopng #top talkers #comp intel #enumeration #attribution

  5. Oh Mann, mein altes, graues Herz.
    Ich spiele mit #ntopng rum und sehe stabil viel Traffic von meinem Server im Keller zu einer russischen v6-Adresse.
    Mein Server hat aber keinen Grund, viele Daten nach Rußland zu schicken, dennoch tut er das.
    tcpdump zeigt nur unlesbares Binär-Geraffel. Der Puls steigt. APT-Putin im Keller? Die Russen wollen meine Kohlen fressen? Und wieso läßt mein Router das durch? Eingehende Verbindungen, auch v6, werden doch weggeworfen?

    Das hatte ich völlig vergessen. Dann ist ja alles gut, Putin ärgert sich und ich freue mich, vielleicht ein paar Russen freies internet gegeben zu haben.

  7. I installed on my box (b/c shared db) and, in about an hour, things completely blew-up

    I also changed who hands out DHCP addresses from the router to the pihole, so that may have added some additional load

    Didn't take long for my nameservices to come to a grinding halt; ntopng had became a runaway and exhausted CPU and RAM resources as load went through the roof - I had to stop & disable ntopng and allow the system to cool

    I checked my hardware on various ❤️ boards I have in dedicated services and was stunned to see that pi-hole had been happily chugging along, all this time, on a pi2b1

    Nice.

  8. Any users on ? I'm trying to find a good whole networking monitoring tool, mostly to monitor outbound connections from within my network - rogue APIs, websites, etc. Maybe ntopng isn't the right answer... open to suggestions!

  10. is till now the best tool that I could find. The interface is awesome and it detects most of my traffic.

    One small issue that i am stuck is that I wish it had agents that I could install on non detected devices to track them better.

    What are you guys using for monitoring your home network?

  12. I love #ntopng. I finally installed the ntopng service in my Proxmox host to tattle on what all the containers/VMs were up to. #Grafana showed heavy network usage, so I switched over to ntopng and I can see one container and one VM are having an NFS party. Also that my driveway camera is a bandwidth hog sending videos to motion to be processed. Cool.
