NetFlow2SQL Collector

NetFlow is a feature that first appeared on Cisco routers. It provides the ability to collect IP network traffic as it enters or exits an interface. By analyzing the data provided by NetFlow, a network administrator can determine things such as the source and destination of traffic, class of service, and the causes of congestion.

NetFlow2SQL Collector is a lightweight software solution designed to receive NetFlow packets from up to 10 NetFlow routers thus increasing the workload that can be bared.

NetFlow2SQL Collector can also store the NetFlow router's contents into up to 10 databases on Microsoft SQL Servers or MySQL servers.

The application software is a fusing of two different software apps:  NetFlow2SQL Collector Manager and NetFlow2SQL Collector itself which is a Windows service application.

Once the data from the NetFlow routers is saved into the database formats, they are easier to read and interpret.

​This means that with the help of this software, you don't have to know NetFlow to interpret the data. Instead, you need basic knowledge of Microsoft SQL Servers or MySQL servers.

This task simplification allows you to be an admin even if you don't have all the necessary knowledge.
