Netflow V9 (Custom) Channel Definition - Post NAT Address

Votes:

0

Hi,

How can I get Post NAT IPv4 Address from Netflow V9 (Custom) sensor ?

Here the output Template captured from wireshark:

Frame 3432: 262 bytes on wire (2096 bits), 262 bytes captured (2096 bits) on interface 0

        Template (Id = 256, Count = 24)
            Template Id: 256

            Field (21/24): postNATSourceIPv4Address
            Field (22/24): postNATDestinationIPv4Address
            Field (23/24): postNAPTSourceTransportPort
            Field (24/24): postNAPTDestinationTransportPort
        Template (Id = 257, Count = 23)


From the manual, I'm not able to find any valid field for channel definitions that match those item.

Thank you.

Sorry I cannot add and save old post (always get internal server error) so I post it here.

Hi,

How can I get Post NAT IPv4 Source Address (Type 225) and Post NAT IPv4 Destination Address (Type 226) from Netflow V9 (Custom) sensor ?

            Field (24/24): postNAPTDestinationTransportPort
        Template (Id = 257, Count = 23)


From the manual, I'm not able to find any valid field for channel definition that match those types.

Perhaps a new field (generic) for manually defined field type ?

Thank you.

Hey,

If you want to monitor source and destination IP addresses then we need to ask you to install a proxy in your network, as PRTG cannot monitor such information.
