We are excited to introduce Noction Flow Analyzer version 24.08, which features...
System Requirements
Hardware Requirements: #
- x86_64 architecture
- Minimum 4x core CPU (8x core CPU recommended), SSE4.2 support
- Minimum 32GB of RAM (64GB RAM recommended; 128GB RAM – optimal)
- Minimum 250GB SSD storage (500GB SSD storage recommended) allocated to the /var partition
Software Requirements: #
- Ubuntu 20.04, Ubuntu 22.04 or Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
Please note that NFA can also be installed on a server running RHEL 8 / RHEL 9. The minimum system requirements assume default configuration. Significantly increasing the flow collection rate might cause additional load on a server, thus requiring extra memory or a larger CPU.
Hardware resources depend on the amount of flows/s exported to NFA. For each additional 1,000 flows/sec, 1 GB of RAM and 0.2 of vCPU are required. An additional 2 GB of RAM and 4 vCPU are required when the BGP add-on is used. Values are directly proportional: RAM and vCPU numbers per 1,000 flows/sec.
For instance: 40,000 flows/sec will require 40 GB of RAM and 8 vCPU, plus 2 GB of RAM and 4 vCPU in case a BGP add-on is used.
