RHEL 5.4 下安装和使用 ntop 全纪录

1. ntop介绍

　　Ntop是一种监控网络流量工具，用ntop显示网络的使用情况比其他一些网络管理软件更加直观、详细。Ntop甚至可以列出每个节点计算机的网络带宽利用率。他是一个灵活的、功能齐全的，用来监控和解决局域网问题的工具；尤其当ntop与nprobe配合使用，其功能更加显著。它同时提供命令行输入和web页面，可应用于嵌入式web服务。

http://www.linuxidc.com/Linux/2012-05/59659.htm 写道

NTOP主要提供以下一些功能：
◆ 自动从网络中识别有用的信息；
◆ 将截获的数据包转换成易于识别的格式；
◆ 对网络环境中通信失败的情况进行分析；
◆ 探测网络环境中的通信瓶颈；
◆ 记录网络通信的时间和过程。
◆ 自动识别客户端正在使用的操作系统;
◆ 可以在命令行和Web两种方式运行。
它可以通过分析网络流量来确定网络上存在的各种问题；也可以用来判断是否有黑客正在攻击网络系统；还可以很方便地显示出特定的网络协议、占用大量带宽的主机、各次通信的目标主机、数据包的发送时间、传递数据包的延时等详细信息。通过了解这些信息，网管员可以对故障做出及时的响应，对网络进行相应的优化调整，以保证网络运行的效率和安全。

http://www.linuxidc.com/Linux/2011-08/40783.htm 写道

ntop 4.1 发布了，这是一个维护版本，删除了一些过时的代码和协议，增加 Facebook 和 Twitter 支持，降低了内存占用，提升了稳定性。
跟 top 监视系统活动状况相似，ntop 是一个用来实时监视网络使用情况的工具。由于 ntop 具有 Web 界面模式，因此无论是配置还是使用都很容易在短时间之内快速上手。

2. ntop安装

2.1. 安装 cairo-devel

因为安装 rrdtool 需要。cairo，埃及首都开罗，向量图形绘图库。

http://www.oschina.net/p/cairo/ 写道

在资讯领域中，cairo 是一个让用于提供向量图形绘图的免费函式库，Cairo 提供在多个背景下做 2-D 的绘图，进阶的更可以使用硬件加速功能。

虽然 Cairo 是使用C语言撰写的，但是当使用 Cairo 时，可以用许多其他种语言来使用，包括有 C++、C#、Java、Python、Perl、Ruby、Scheme、Smalltalk 以及许多种语言，Cairo 在 GPL 与 Mozilla Public License 两个认证下发行。

2.2. 安装 pango-devel

因为安装 rrdtool 需要。pango是一个文字渲染库。

http://baike.baidu.com/view/2941612.htm 写道

　　Pango（Παν语）是一个开放源代码的自由函数库，用于高质量地渲染国际化的文字。Pango可以使用不同的后端字体，并提供了跨平台支持。

　　Pango已经被整合到多数Linux发行版中，并在Fedora Core 6被用于Firefox网页浏览器和Thunderbird邮件客户端的文字渲染。虽然在Mozilla的源代码里并没有包含Pango，但Fedora Core得到了Mozilla基金会的特别许可[1]。同样，Debian的Iceweasel、IceDove和IceApe也使用了Pango。

　　在与Cairo融合后，Pango可以完全进行文字处理和图形渲染。

2.3. 安装 rrdtool

rrdtool是一个环状数据库工具。

http://baike.baidu.com/view/1867979.htm 写道

　　RRDtool是由Tobias Oetiker 编写并由全球各地的许多人贡献的工具。RRDtool是指Round Robin Database 工具（环状数据库）。Round robin是一种处理定量数据、以及当前元素指针的技术。想象一个周边标有点的圆环－－这些点就是时间存储的位置。从圆心画一条到圆周的某个点的箭头－－这就是指针。就像我们在一个圆环上一样，没有起点和终点，你可以一直往下走下去。过来一段时间，所有可用的位置都会被用过，该循环过程会自动重用原来的位置。这样，数据集不会增大，并且不需要维护。RRDtool处理RRD数据库。它用向RRD数据库存储数据、从RRD数据库中提取数据。

简要安装步骤如下：

wget http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool/pub/rrdtool-1.4.7.tar.gz
tar zxf rrdtool-1.4.7.tar.gz
cd rrdtool-1.4.7
./configure --prefix=/usr
make && make install

下面是安装过程中的一些输出信息：
[root@liunx0918 rrdtool-1.4.7]# ./configure --prefix=/usr

2.4. 安装 libpcap-devel

libpcap是一个网络数据包捕获函数库。

http://baike.baidu.com/view/1319961.htm 写道

　　libpcap是unix/linux平台下的网络数据包捕获函数包，
　　大多数网络监控软件都以它为基础。
　　Libpcap可以在绝大多数类unix平台下工作.
　　Libpcap应用程序框架
　　Libpcap提供了系统独立的用户级别网络数据包捕获接口，并充分考虑到应用程序的可移植性。

安装 ntop 时需要，否则报下面的错：

???????????? *** FATAL ERROR ***????????????
?It looks that you don't have the libpcap distribution installed.

2.5. 安装 GeoIP

GeoIP是一个 ip 对应地理信息的数据库。

http://hi.baidu.com/liongg/item/4ba0083e224b620fceb9fe81 写道

所谓GeoIP，就是通过来访者的IP，定位他的经纬度，国家/地区，省市，甚至街道等位置信息。这里面的技术不算难题，关键在于有个精准的数据库。有了准确的数据源就奇货可居赚点小钱，可是发扬合作精神，集体贡献众人享用是我们追求的。

如果不安装 GeoIP，那么在安装 ntop 时报错：

Please install GeoIP (http://www.maxmind.com/)

2.6. 安装 ntop

终于到这一步了。下面是安装的简要步骤：

tar zxf ntop-4.1.0.tar.gz
cd ntop-4.1.0
./autogen.sh
make && make install

下面是安装过程中输出的部分信息：

3. 运行 ntop

3.1. 运行前的准备工作

网上有些资料说需要添加名为 ntop 的用户，我试了，并不需要。

首先来看一下 ntop 的启动参数：

ntop -u user 就可以指定启动程序执行的用户，否则 ntop是以 nobody 用户来运行的。

ntop -h 写道

[-u <user> | --user <user>] Userid/name to run ntop under (see man page)

一般建议以 ntop 用户来运行 ntop 程序。

下面是创建 ntop 用户的步骤：
useradd -s /sbin/nologin ntop
passwd -l ntop

[root@liunx0918 ~]# useradd -s /sbin/nologin ntop
[root@liunx0918 ~]# passwd -l ntop
Locking password for user ntop.
passwd: Success
[root@liunx0918 ~]#

计划将 ntop 的数据库放在 /var/ntop 目录
[root@liunx0918 ~]# mkdir /var/ntop
[root@liunx0918 ~]# chown -R ntop:ntop /var/ntop
[root@liunx0918 ~]#

检查防火墙设置，放开 3000 端口
先执行 service iptables save
再在 /etc/sysconfig/iptables 中添加一行
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 3000 -j ACCEPT
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited
保存
执行 service iptables restart

[root@liunx0918 ~]# service iptables save
Saving firewall rules to /etc/sysconfig/iptables:????????? [? OK? ]
[root@liunx0918 ~]# vi /etc/sysconfig/iptables
修改 /etc/sysconfig/iptables 文件，如上所示。
[root@liunx0918 ~]# service iptables restart
Flushing firewall rules:?????????????????????????????????? [? OK? ]
Setting chains to policy ACCEPT: filter??????????????????? [? OK? ]
Unloading iptables modules:??????????????????????????????? [? OK? ]
Applying iptables firewall rules:????????????????????????? [? OK? ]
Loading additional iptables modules: ip_conntrack_netbios_n[? OK? ]
[root@liunx0918 ~]#

注：直接执行下面的命令不能放开 3000 端口
iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 3000 -j ACCEPT

ntop其他重要参数

ntop -h 写道

[-P <path> | --db-file-path <path>] Path for ntop internal database files

[-i <name> | --interface <name>] Interface name or names to monitor

[-d | --daemon] Run ntop in daemon mode

[-L] Do logging via syslog

[--skip-version-check] Skip ntop version check

[-A] Ask admin user password and exit

经过这么长时间的准备工作，我准备用下面的方式来启动 ntop，用以监控第一块网卡上的流量：

ntop -P /var/ntop -i eth0 -u ntop

3.2. 设置 ntop 管理密码

首先得使用 ntop -A 设置管理密码。可以设置得复杂些。

ntop startup - waiting for user response!

Please enter the password for the admin user: Mon May 28 15:07:13 2012? THREADMGMT[t3017280400]: DNSAR(3): Address resolution thread running

Password too short (5 characters or more). Please try again.

ntop startup - waiting for user response!

Please enter the password for the admin user:
Please enter the password again:
Mon May 28 15:07:31 2012? Admin user password has been set

现在就可以通过浏览器来访问了，比如使用 Firefox，网址为：

http://your_server_ip:3000/

4. 安装和使用 ntop 的常见问题

4.1. 我用浏览器访问 http://xxx:3000/ 时没有询问用户名和密码（很多资料上说有），为什么？

在查看网络统计信息时不需要，但点 Admin 里面的配置选项时需要。

4.2. 流量的单位

是 bps，不是 Bps

4.3. ntop 提供了使用 Google Maps 查看访问者地图，但是不灵。

得先申请一个 Google Maps API Key，下面的资料有介绍：

http://code.google.com/android/maps-api-signup.html
https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/maps-api-signup

不过，怎么试都不灵。最后，看了一下网页源代码，发现 ntop 使用的 Google Maps v2 的API，现在已经作废不能用了。希望 ntop 尽快推出支持 Google Maps v3 的版本。
