Throwing my hat in the ring also (vendor from fmadio)

Not exactly a newflow collector, its pcap -> flowgen -> elk on a single
box, working very well so far, still work in progress.

Problem with logstash is its too slow for high flow rates. So we did
everything inside the flow generator for direct ELK bulk uploads removing
logstash completely.

Hi Nanog….

We are looking at replacing our Netflow collector. I am wonder what other
service providers are using to collect netflow data off their Core and Edge
Routers. Pros/Cons… What to watch out for any info would help.

We are mainly looking to analyze the netflow data. Bonus if it does ddos
detection and mitigation.

We are looking at
ManageEngine Netflow Analyzer
PRTG
Plixer – Scrutinizer
PeakFlow
Kentik
Solarwinds NTA


Thanks in advance…

Erik
