Just a word, probably save you from getting flamed by a someone hard
core down the road...you really should bottom post, as is lets newcomers
to the thread get a glimpse as to what is going on.  This also gets you

That said, you can simply change to the /usr/src/ports/net/ntop
directory issue make install clean and sit back.  You will need to read
the documentation on configuring it after it's installed.
