Update links and cache to the shared libraries: # /sbin/ldconfig Enable and Configure NetFlow Plugin on Ntop If you get the error message below when launching ntop: error while loading shared libraries: libntopreport-5.0.1.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Also note that port 3001 needs to opened on a firewall if public access is needed. Use man ntop for more command line options if needed. W : starts an embedded ntop web server for HTTPS

Install external tools and libraries required by ntop: # apt-get install libpcap-dev libgdbm-dev zlib1g-dev libgeoip-dev libgraphviz-dev \ Install required software: # apt-get install libtool automake autoconf make build-essential python-dev subversion Update the system first: # apt-get update & apt-get upgrade -uV We will install and configure Ntop to collect flows generated by Mikrotik router. Note that Ntop isn’t the same software as NtopNG. NetFlow is an industry standard for flow-based traffic monitoring. It can act as a NetFlow collector for flows generated by routers such as Cisco or Mikrotik. Ntop is a network monitoring tool similar to Unix top, which shows network traffic usage.
