Help with Softflowd and exporting netflow data to PRTG

• I've never been able to configure that file successfully
• Nor was I sure if it were possible to define mutiple PHYs

Seems that’s now three of us with the same conclusion - it doesn’t complain, but it sure doesn’t work per the docs.

@lleachii

softflowd -i eth0.2 -v 9 -n 192.168.xxx.xxx:xxxxx -d &           
softflowd -i 6in4-henet -v 9 -n 192.168.xxx.xxx:xxxxx -d &

This is the equivalent UCI syntax in /etc/config/softflowd - I hope this helps someone:

config softflowd                    
        option enabled '1'          
        option interface 'eth0.2'    
        option host_port '192.168.xxx.xxx:xxxxx'
        option export_version '9'          
                                 
config softflowd               
        option enabled '1'                 
        option interface '6in4-henet'      
        option host_port '192.168.xxx.xxx:xxxxx'
        option export_version '9'

This works in version 21
