Why is the traffic high? #41

Using sipgrep to send homer traffic, the export bandwidth will suddenly increase. What is causing this? Is there any way to avoid it?

An HEP client should only send what it receives - so something is on the wire - could you confirm you're not being scanned or something? If this is the case, You should see what happened in the protocol statistics quite clearly.

Side note: sipgrep is not an agent designed for perpetual mirroring and rather for casual console usage. I would suggest using a proper agent designed for the job, such as heplify or captagent to confirm if this happens there too.

daxiondi commented 3 years ago

I use sngrep, there is no such situation, confirm that it has not been scanned

lmangani commented 3 years ago

@daxiondi I can tell you use sngrep, the question is why sipgrep instead of a dedicated agent? Is this a "one-off" type of capture or permanently running?

daxiondi commented 3 years ago

I hope it will run permanently, and I can view the history of SIP signaling on homer

lmangani commented 3 years ago

@daxiondi please switch to heplify if you are running a perpetual sniffer.

daxiondi commented 3 years ago

I will try and tell you to use the report

It's been used for some time. Duplicate is really easy to use and stable. Thank you
