SrcIf         SrcIPaddress    DstIf         DstIPaddress    Pr SrcP DstP Bytes

Fa0           xx.xx.xx.184  Local         xx.xx.xx.146   2F 0000 0000  4680K

Fa0           xx.xx.xx.214  Vl10          xx.xx.xx.1      06 078F 08B0  4020K

I just want to know what is the bytes detail is.

My netflow configuration is default one about timers, on "cache-timeout" has been changed to 30 seconds

Hi Nico,

Bytes field is the number of bytes of data that is flowing for that top-talker.

Hi Nico,

For as long as the flow is active in the netflow TCAM.

For example - A flow start at some time and netflow starts metering the bytes of flow through the router. So as long as the flow is active the bytes keeps incrementing.
