Hi Joe,

The APU2 is not a TAP, it is a standard pc. Ntopng runs inside the APU2 
itself. If you need a monitoring solution based on a TAP, you will need 
to do the TAP aggregation separately and then feed the aggregated 
traffic through a single APU2 port.

Please note that you can install ntopng on any standard pc with at 
least one NIC.
We use the APU2 for a different task, which is to intercept packets 
being forwarded from one network interface to another to monitor and 
possibly shape/drop them. This is why we have are interested in a board 
with multiple NICs.

Regards,
Emanuele
