Hi everyone,
I'm currently looking into Netflow accounting implementation on my infrastructure. I have many 4500 chassis with Supervisor Engine V-10GE that could be interesting to put as netflow exporters. From the documentation, it looks like I dont even need any additional card to make it work :
"Integrated NetFlow on the Supervisor Engine V-10GE supports per-packet capture for flow- and VLAN-based statistics. Detailed information of each flow (a stream of packets traveling in one direction from one endpoint to another across the network) is cached such as the IP address, packet and byte count, time stamp, and application port. This data is then exported, collected, and analyzed for numerous purposes such as virus and denial-of-service detection and mitigation, departmental billing, and traffic monitoring. All NetFlow processing on the Supervisor Engine V-10GE is performed in hardware without any performance degradation to Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching."
From http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/modules/ps2797/ps6033/product_data_sheet0900aecd801c5c66.html
Did anyone already tried Netflow on these cards ? Is it really not impacting the supervisor RP ? Can I also use the CBQoS part on these ?
Sorry for all these questions but finding relevant info on this subject is quite a struggle.
Thanks,
Thomas
