Upgrades…

Summer is time for some upgrades. I bought a Nokia 5800 a couple of months ago, and it died completely after three days. And after some crappy attempts to repair it by the company I bought it from I got it replaced with a Nokia E71. I usually don’t like these Smartphones but it was the only one in the same price range that seemed decent. Also I got this webserver upgraded to run IPv6. Slowly the world is adopting IPv6, just need to get it running at home as well. But it will come a rainy day. And thankfully this is Sweden so we have a lot of rainy days…

One down, one to go…

So, got finally got rid of that old Ninja. Now we just need to get rid of that old KTM as well.  Had a real nerd night the other day.  Found out that the lateste Cisco ASA software, 8.2.1, supports Netflow so I hacked together that and also SoftFlow on a Linux machine to get some data to analyze. Seems to be working. So the setup is like this, flowd running on a OpenBSD 4.5 that logs all the data. ASA 5505 and a Debian exporting data, might add some hosts later. Now I just need some nice graphing tools for this. Cacti does not do that otu of the box. Found something called FlowScan that I will look into really soon. Looks like it is pretty nifty software, and it was also in the Debian APT repository.
