Description

hi, since you don't read a conf file at startup, could you add the -p parameter to the startup script and point it to a file?

(i.e., adjust /usr/local/pkg/ntopng.inc so that it that generates the various bits)

for

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/ntopng.sh

add

-p /usr/local/etc/custom.protos

(say right after the -G pidspec and before the s flag; maybe touch the protos file too, if it doesn't exist)

fwiw, the custom.protos file takes the format as in https://github.com/ntop/nDPI/blob/dev/example/protos.txt

and allows users to reduce the amount of "Unknown" traffic classification, by including custom information for the nDPI parser.

thanks!!

Beginning with version 5.6.0 of the ntopng package in April of 2024, the ntopng package does use a configuration file, and supports direct addition of custom configuration lines via the "Additional configuration for ntopng.conf" section in the package.

This request can be closed as completed.
