FlowMon monitoring probe project
InfoHW sectionSW sectionAddr space
Author:   Martin Zadnik

The project FlowMon probe (formerly called NetFlow phase 2) is continues effort of improving performance and functionality of NetFlow phase1 probe. The aim of the project is to develop an autonomous network probe which gathers important data about network traffic. Our inspiration was the NetFlow implemented by Cisco. It provides aggregated information about IP flows which could be used to manage current networks, plan new topologies or detect DoS attacks.
