Read the article in docs/FAQ on sFlow and the two types of packets it
sends...

Subject: [Ntop] SFlow doesn't work [Number of Valid Flows Received is
always0 altough packets are being received...]

Hello,

I'm trying to use ntop in connection with the sflow plugin that is receiving
sflow sample from our foundry bigiron switchrouter.
Ntop is seeing a lot of packets but none of them seems to be valid and there
is no data being shown :-((

Any ideas what to do?

I've noticed that the agent-ip and the "datagramSourceIP" ntop is displaying
are different. Maybe this is causing the problems?

When using the sflow-tools in connection with tcpdump I can see that there
are a lot of sflow-samples incoming:
