NetFlow Historic Data report

I'm using the NetFlow V9 Sensor. How can I get a Historic Data report (custom period, for example - 1 Month) for the "Top Talkers" or "Top Connections" or "Custom Toplist"?

Hello,

thank you very much for your KB-Post. I'm very sorry but the Toplists cannot be reported. So it's not intended to have periods of 24 hours or longer on Toplists actually. But if you have Netflow Sensors filtering for certain IPs/Hosts then the normal sensor results can be reported and would also show bandwidth-amounts for certain IPs/hosts.

best regards.

I agree; definitely need to look at doing historic or monthly level reporting on Netflow top lists. I would love to know which ASN's we send and receive the most traffic from on a monthly basis to help us determine future bandwidth purchases.

We do this right now from another tool written in-house, but all of our other monitoring is done using PRTG and it would be great to be able to do for other netflow top lists we have.

We've needed this feature from PRTG for years now. Why is such a basic request taking so long? They've added tons of useless features, yet can't add something that would really help net admins?
