Enhanced Netflow Version 9 (e-Netflow v9) For Network Mediation: Structure, Experiment and Analysis

Abstract

The Netflow version 9 is the latest Netflow version introduced by CISCO for the network monitoring and analysis purposes. Then come IPFIX that defined by IETF to overcome problem in Netflow version 9 and to enhance a few aspect of network flow capturing and filtering. It co-operated with PSAMP (packet sampling) standard for intelligent packet sampling for flow monitoring. This research paper will introduce enhanced Netflow version 9 (e-Netflow v9) that use nProbe GPL tool. The enhanced Netflow version 9 uses existing Netflow v9 parameters with RTP and SIP plug-ins. We will introduce the overall structure of this Netflow, the experiment to compare the results and performance and the finally analysis parts to study the reliability of this e-Netflow v9.
