NFSEN
The NFsen is running successfully now. It is now able to show and track the flows in each switches. (BR1, BR2, AR1, AR2)
Traffic and packet flows in the form of bits per second and packets per second respectively are plotted with the form of graph.
All the information is being captured from BR1, BR2, AR1, AR2. Individual data is edited and entered into the "nfsen.conf' file.
%sources = (
'BR1' => { 'port' => '9999', 'col' => '#0000ff', 'type' => 'netflow' },
);
some useful sites for the configuration of NFSen : http://www.oneunified.net/blog/OpenSource/Debian/Monitoring/nfsen.article
A look of how the NFSen looks like
In the next few days, we'll be continuing working on additional add-ons into our server like tacacs, nagios etc..Wednesday, April 22, 2009
The NFSen has already been setup. However, the full graph still hasn't showed up correctly due to some unknown reasons which we are still trying to figure out.
Here are some websites which we've refered to: http://nfsen.sourceforge.net/#mozTocId853803
A screenshot of the NFSen which is not fully setup yet:

For the tacacs done by Firdaus, the configuration file is already done but pending for execution at the moment.
As for the NFSen, the nfdump and nfsen is already installed. However, upon executing the command " ./install.pl etc/nfsen.conf", there is an error saying :
Can't locate Mail/Header.pm in @INC (@INC contains: libexec ./libexec ./installer-items /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.8 /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.8 /usr/share/perl/5.8 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at ./install.pl line 642.
We are still working on them to make the Tacacs and NFSen work correctly...

WEEK 7
we are still working on the cacti and ntp servers. currently, we are unable to distinguish the problem of setting them up but we'll continue doing research on them on search engines.
meanwhile, the NFSen is also on the move pending to be set up.
as for the cacti server, it has already been working sucessfully. http://172.20.178.3/cacti-0.8.7b
with the login as 'admin' and password 'cacti' .

TODAY WAS OUR PRESENTATION
We followed our presentation closely and during this time all went smoothly. Mr Siva commented that Firdaus was speaking too fast as if he was nervous and he could do better.
During the Q&A session, we couldn't answer to Mr Siva what a router and a switch does. Thus we were both left stuck.
In the next question regarding WHAT WAS THE PURPOSE OF SETTING UP A VIRTUAL MACHINE FOR, we couldn't answer accordingly and Terence tried answering but gave the wrong replied.

Fixing the Cable
Mr Wagio Draft out for us a plan. He showed us how our network will look like, physically and logically.
After examining the network logically, we started to mount our network physically. Basically we're dealing with Switch, firewall, routers, straight cables etc. Firstly we mount our switches etc on the cupboard. Next we differentiate the straight cables as we need them to connect between switches; for eg fa0/0 to fa0/0.
After getting all the equipment mounted up, we fix the cable. Following the plan drafted for us, we carefully connect them together. After getting them all fixed up, the wires etc. We checked whether all the connection are ok or not. By looking at the LED green light, it shows that the connection is fine and are working properly.
Next configuration will be done in a couple days time.
