Netflow on FWSM

[nguyenvinht]

We integrated FWSM into 6509 and it is doing the routing. Is there a way to get Netflow data from FWSM? Is netflow supported on FWSM?

Thanks.

Hi,

NETFlow is not supported on the FWSM. You could use the SUP on the Catalyst 6509 to do NETFlow.

Please refer the below URLs for configuration details:

I hope it helps.

Thanks for letting me know. I wasn't able to get outbound netflow data from 6509 with SUP 720 because the ip of the gateway of the vlans is defined on the FWSM. In order to get netflow on 6509, each Vlan interface needs to have an ip address.
