About:
softflowd is a software flow-based network monitor. It tracks network traffic flows, reports aggregate statistics, and optionally exports Cisco Netflow compatible datagrams (to unicast hosts or multicast groups). It can listen on a promiscuous network interface or read store pcap capture files, and includes a sophisticated control interface.

Release focus: Minor bugfixes

Changes:
Manual sending of NetFlow v.9 template refreshes is now supported. ICMP type/code is now encoded into port numbers, similar to some Cisco products. Lower-resolution tracking of flows (ignoring port or protocol information) was implemented for high-bandwidth users. Several small but important bugfixes were made.
