ntop + Slack integration ------------------------ ntopng can send alerts to slack.com mobile/web-application by means of the slack webhook. All you need to do is: 1. Go to http://slack.com and create a team 2. Create a few channels. Make sure you use these exact channel names #interface #host #network #snmp_device #flow #mac #host_pool Each channel will receive notifications about a specific topic 3. Invite people to channels 4. Find on the slack page your webhook - Login into Slack - Visit https://my.slack.com/services/new/incoming-webhook/ - Click "Add Incoming WebHooks integration", the channel does not matter - Annotate the "Webhook URL" - Click "Save", the other settings do not matter The Webhook URL should look similar to https://hooks.slack.com/services/ZZZZZZZZZZZz/YYYYYYYYY/XXXXXXXXXXXXX See https://api.slack.com/tutorials/your-first-slash-command for more details about creating your webhook 5. Go to ntopng menu Preferences > Alerts and set - Enable slack integration to ON - Set a name for the alert sender (e.g. myntopbot) - Set the webhook to the value you have found on the previous step 6. Wait until an alert is generated
