Cflowd Configuration not complete but working?!

[whistleblower14]

Hi everybody!

Im dealing with a weird behavior regarding the export of Cflowd data to a 3rd party collector and I hope that someone of you can help me to understand what‘s going on

As far as I understood and honestly always thought in a Centralized Policy a Cflowd Collector had to be configured and next to this, in the Traffic Data Policy (NOT AAR) under each Sequence the Action Cflowd had to be choosen, so that all kind of traffic matching that respective sequences will get send to that collector, correct?! Now I get IPfix packets with all the Application related informations on my 3rd party LiveNX collector BUT I did`nt have configured the Cflowd parameter in the Traffic Data Policy Action for no sequence at all... Can you please help me understand why this is working and/or if my understanding is wrong? Thank you in advance

This is likely because you have configured:

policy
app-visibility
flow-visibility

Basically you activated cflow already, also you have netflow destination configure already via cflow template. Then you don't need to explicitly configure which traffic to sample via data policy.
