Here's a link for the steps in configuring NetFlow (version 9) in a Cisco NCS 540 IOS-XR.
Step 1 |
Create and configure an exporter map. |
||
Step 2 |
Create and configure a monitor map and a sampler map.
|
||
Step 3 |
Apply the monitor map and sampler map to an interface. |
There are some caveats in configuring NetFlow in a Cisco IOS-XR:
- Do not use the management interface to export the NetFlow packets.
- NetFlow
can be configured only in the ingress direction.
- A source interface must always be configured. If you do not configure a source interface, the exporter will remain in a disabled state.
- Only export format Version 9 and IPFIX is supported.
- A valid record map name must always be configured for every flow monitor map.
- NetFlow is not supported on Bridge Virtual Interface (BVI).
- NetFlow is not supported on sub-interfaces.
- NetFlow on sub-interface routed via BVI is not supported.
- Destination-based Netflow accounting is not supported, only IPv4, IPv6 and MPLS record types are supported under monitor-map.
- Output interface field is not updated in data and flow records when the traffic is routed through ACL based forwarding (ABF).
- Output interface field is not updated in data and flow records for the multicast traffic.
- Output interface, source and destination prefix lengths fields are not set in data and flow records for GRE transit traffic.
- For Netflow IPFIX315, configure the hw-module profile netflow ipfix315 command.
- If IPFIX315 is enabled on a line card then all the ports on that line card should have IPFIX315 configured.
- For hw-module profile qos hqos-enable , NetFlow does not give the output interface for cases like L2 bridging, xconnect, IPFIX, and so on.
- L4 header port numbers are supported only for TCP and UDP.
- NetFlow does not give the output interface for traffic terminating on GRE tunnel.
Here's a sample NetFlow configuration template. It's similar to the legacy IOS IP accounting feature.
