Hiding DHCP flows
Is there a way to hide flows for DHCP traffic? I keep seeing the flows between 0.0.0.0 and 255.255.255.255 for clients looking for an IP address.

Hi,

You can use a BPF filter:

-B "not port bootps"

Re: Hiding DHCP flows [ In reply to ]
That didn't work but I should have been more precise. This is a ZMQ interface receiving flows from nProbe. Neither nProbe or Ntopng are capturing. I tried running nProbe with --bpf-filter "not port bootps" but flows between 0.0.0.0 and 255.255.255.255 still show. Is there a way to apply this filter to Ntopng for flows received from Nprobe, or to Nprobe for collected Netflow data?

OK, in that case you have to use option --collection-filter on nProbe. Use a /32 to exclude the single address. See:

--collection-filter <filter> | Filter applied to collected filters only (-3). Filter format:
| [!]<asX | network/mask> (! means discard flows matching filter)
| Multiple filters can be defined using multiple --collection-filter options.
| Filter examples: !as12345, 192.168.0.0/24, !10.0.0.0/8
