Robin Zhu
Level 1
Level 1

What's the differece between following two commands? Thx

ipv6 flow-export template timeout-rate

ipv6 flow-export template option timeout-rate

My understanding is first will send main flow cache every X mins. How about the 2nd one?

Netflow templates need to be periodically refreshed.

The timeout-rate is for flow template records

the option timeout rate is for options template records

What are those things?  See:
