Flexible NetFlow data collected but not exported

Kostas Kyriakos

Level 1

Hello,

I am testing the following Flexible Netflow configuration on one of our ASR1001-X in the lab.

The router is running 3.14.0S:

 

 

flow record ipv4-netflow-record
 match ipv4 protocol
 match ipv4 source address
 match ipv4 destination address
 match transport source-port
 match transport destination-port
 collect counter bytes
 collect counter packets
!
!
flow exporter ipv4-netflow-exporter
 destination <collector_IP_address> vrf MGMT
 source GigabitEthernet0/0/2
 transport udp 2055
 export-protocol netflow-v5
!
!
flow monitor ipv4-netflow-monitor
 exporter ipv4-netflow-exporter
 record ipv4-netflow-record
!
sampler ipv4-netflow-sampler
 mode deterministic 1 out-of 1024
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/0/4
[..]
 ip flow monitor ipv4-netflow-monitor input
 ip flow monitor ipv4-netflow-monitor output
[..]
!

The flows are collected, however, they are not exported to the collector:

 

lab#sh flow monitor ipv4-netflow-monitor cache 
  Cache type:                               Normal (Platform cache)

lab#sh flow exporter name ipv4-netflow-exporter statistics 
Flow Exporter ipv4-netflow-exporter:
  Packet send statistics (last cleared 01:10:47 ago):
    Successfully sent:         0                     (0 bytes)

  Client send statistics:
    Client: Flow Monitor ipv4-netflow-monitor
      Records added:           0
      Bytes added:             0

Connectivity between exporter and collector is ok. Also, port 2055/UDP on the server is open.

 

Any hints as to why the flows are not exported even though they are collected?

 

BR,

Kostas
