      I did it several days ago but I do not see the activity map ...
      Do I have any errors in the settings? I left the defaults

      Many thanks

        I would like to see this activity map. Maybe I expressed myself badly.
        Many thanks

          Maybe it has to do with the "new version" that shows as being available in your first screenshot... maybe that's a feature that wasn't part of the version currently available as a pfSense package.

          It looks like the latest version of nmap was updated in FreshPorts towards the beginning of the month... I would imagine that someone from pfSense hasn't had a chance to update the package to the new version yet. Not sure if that's the reason the activity map isn't showing or not, but it's possible.

            To get that map I do believe he does need to do that.

            https://github.com/ntop/ntopng/issues/872
            Activity map must be enabled explicitly by starting ntopng with option --enable-flow-activity:

            That is from 2016..

              I wait for package update. but now it is not possible to do this update in pfsense.
              I don't think this is my problem.
              Best regards

                Hi,
                I know that. I wrote the same thing some post before.
                My problem is that I don't know how modify the start options in pfsense.
                Some help?

                  you would have to edit file directly.. I don't see anything in the gui for allowing adding options.

                    Hi. I'm a windows user and I don't have experience with linux. I'm a developer with good experience in windows. Can you give me please a link with a guide to do that?
                    Many thanks @johnpoz

                      The source of ntopng inc is here
                      https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense-packages/blob/master/config/ntopng/ntopng.inc

                      Oh that is OLD... you need to edit the file directly on the system anyway.. And off the top my head not sure where that is for ntop - I normally don't run it.

                        OK. I try it when I have a bit of time.
                        Many thanks for your help

                          I found ntopng.inc inside /usr/local/pkg and attempted to append --enable-flow-activity to the end of the of line 167 but before the &. Like so...

                          /usr/local/bin/ntopng -d /var/db/ntopng -G /var/run/ntopng.pid -s -e {$http_args} {$disable_alerts} {$dump_
                          flows} {$ifaces} {$dns_mode} {$aggregations} {$local_networks} --enable-flow-activity &
                          

                          Stopped and restarted ntopng and still no luck.
