This section is located at the libraries netflow-profiles level.
To create a Netflow profile, use the following command:
Admin@nodename# create libraries netflow-profiles <parameter>
Provide the following profile parameters:
|
Parameter |
Description |
|---|---|
|
name |
Netflow profile name. |
|
description |
Profile description. |
|
ip |
IP address of a Netflow collector to which the sensor will send the statistics. |
|
port |
UDP port on which the Netflow collector will receive the statistics. |
|
protocol |
Netflow protocol version to use (it should be identical on the sensor and the collector):
|
|
active-timeout |
Time after which statistics will be sent to the collector without waiting for the flow to finish (e.g., transferring a large file over the network). In seconds. Default value: 1800 seconds; maximum value: 3600 seconds. |
|
inactive-timeout |
Time allowed for termination of an inactive flow (in seconds). Default value --- 15 seconds; maximum value --- 3600 seconds. |
|
max-flows |
Maximum number of counted flows from which statistics are gathered and sent. After the specified number of flows is reached, all subsequent flows will not be counted (this limitation is necessary to ensure protection against DoS attacks); default value --- 2000000; to remove the limitation, set this parameter to 0. |
|
nat-events |
Enable/disable sending information about NAT conversions to Netflow statistics:
|
|
refresh-rate |
Number of packets; after it is reached the template is sent to the receiving host (only for NetFlow 9/10). The template contains information about the configuration of the device and various statistical information. The default value is 20 packets. |
|
timeout-rate |
Time after which the old template is sent to the receiving host (Netflow 9/10 versions only). The template contains information about the configuration of the device and various statistical information. The default value is 1800 seconds. |

The parameters you can change the values of are listed in the table above.
To delete a Netflow profile, use the following command:
