Graphite integration

Example screen:

We could store pps/bps/flow number for top 7 (could be configured) host in incoming and outgoung directions. In addition to this we export total pps/bps/flow number which flow over FastNetMon.

Configuration from FastNetMon side is very simple, please put following fields to /etc/fastnetmon.conf:

graphite = on
graphite_host = 127.0.0.1
graphite_port = 2003

Install Graphite Debian 8 Jessie

First of all, please install all packages:

apt-get install python-whisper graphite-carbon

Whisper - it's database for data. Graphite - service for storing and retrieving data from database.
