What is Particle Flow?

sflow-rt/particle is an sFlow-RT application that receives a continuous stream of telemetry from standard sFlow agents embedded in network devices, hosts and applications and displays a customizable real-time view of traffic flows in the network. particle Hover over diagram to freeze animation, highlight nearest particle, and display particle details.

How to use this image

First create a configuration file to label axes and assign addresses.

particle.axisN=Internet
particle.cidrN=0.0.0.0/0
particle.axisS=Site
particle.cidrS=10.1.1.0/24,10.1.2.0/24
particle.axisE=Datacenter
particle.cidrE=10.2.0.0/16
particle.axisW=Remote
particle.cidrW=10.3.0.0/16

The above, particle.conf file, provides an example.

docker run -p 8008:8008 -p 6343:6343/udp \
-v $PWD/particle.conf:/sflow-rt/particle.conf \
sflow/particle -Dsystem.propertyFiles=particle.conf

Access web user interface on port 8008.

docker run -p 8008:8008 sflow/particle -Dparticle.demo=yes

Runs a demonstration showing random flows.
