This article provides information related to the Exinda CLI command netflow.

You can use the ip flow-export command to configure netflow export. Netflow records can be exported and sent to third party applications.

NOTE: The following syntax convention is used:

{}: Options are enclosed in curly braces and are separated by '|'.
[]: Optional keywords are enclosed in square brackets.
<>: User input is required where variables are enclosed in greater-than and less-than symbols.

The table below details all netflow commands which are used for configuration and viewing these settings:

Action Description	Command	Parameter Description
To set the destination address and port (UDP) of the device that will receive netflow records	`ip flow-export destination <IPv4 address> <udp-port>`	Not Applicable
To control how often netflow records are exported	`ip flow-export timeout active`	active <duration_min> - How often to export active flow information.
To control refresh settings for export of options	`ip flow-export options {refresh-rate\|timeout-rate\|usernames}`	refresh-rate <packet_count> - Sets the maximum number of packets allowed between options export. timeout-rate <duration_sec> - Sets the maximum number of seconds between options export. usernames expiry-rate <duration_hours> - Set the maximum number of hours to remember inactive usernames. usernames timeout-rate <duration_min> - Set the maximum number of minutes between export of username options.
To control refresh settings for export of templates	`ip flow-export template {refresh-rate\|timeout-rate}`	refresh-rate <packet_count> - Set the maximum number of packets before template export. timeout-rate <duration_sec> - Set the maximum number of seconds before template export.
To show the current flow-export settings	`show ip flow-export config`	Not Applicable
To show currently configured netflow destinations	`show ip flow-export collectors`	Not Applicable
To show netflow template details	`show ip flow-export templates {appid\|appgroupid\|appgroups\|ipv4\|ipv4voip\|ipv4aps}`	Not Applicable

You can also use netflow to configure which information is exported over the system by using the following command:

[no] ip flow-export export {application|aps|bytes-long|direction|extra-info|interfaces|lost-bytes|network-delay|network-jitter|output-counts|packets-long|packets-size|payload-size|policy|rtt|server-delay|tos|traffic-class|ttl|usernames|vlan|voip}

The list below briefly describes the information that is exported through the netflow command mentioned above:

application - Export application identification information.
aps - Export the Application Performance Score (APS).
bytes-long - Export byte counters as 64bit values instead of 32bit.
direction - Export flow direction (i.e. inbound|outbound).
extra-info - Export extra information details (e.g. hostnames, codec names).
interfaces - Export SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) input and output interfaces.
lost-bytes - Export lost bytes count.
network-delay - Export network delay.
network-jitter - Export network jitter.
output-counts - Export output packet and byte counts.
packets-long - Export packet counters as 64bit values instead of 32bit values.
packets-size - Export minimum and maximum packet sizes.
payload-size - Set maximum netflow packet payload size.
policy - Export policy identification information.
rtt - Export round trip time (RTT).
server-delay - Export server delay.
tos - Export minimum and maximum TOS.
traffic-class - Export traffic class id.
ttl - Export minimum and maximum TTL.
usernames - Export username details (see Active Directory and Static Users).
vlan - Export VLAN identifier.
voip - Export R-Factor.
