NetFlow Version 9 will periodically export the template data so the NetFlow collector will understand what
data is to be sent and also export the data flow set for the template. The key advantage to Flexible NetFlow

forwarded to the collector. The figure below is a detailed example of the NetFlow Version 9 export format,
including the header, template flow, and data flow sets.
