Post Netflow
So I just spun up CactiEZ (and loaded the VMware Tools)

How about a quick primer on getting Netflow data onto it?

I point the device to send netflows to the Cacti IP address.
(What Port?)

Do I have to install anything (I'm guessing Flowviewer has to be installed?)

Is that it?

Ok... So I figured out to enable the Flowviewer plugin
I created the /var/netflow/flows directory and chmoded 777
I have files being created there

I deleted the default device, and added a new device.

Now what, The flowviewer isn't showing anything

After creating the new device (or deleting one) you have to restart the flow-capture service.

Also, your cacti server and your router must be synced time wise, or else the reports will be off / show no data.
