Configuring NetFlow on the Matrix X Core Router
clear netflow port port-string
When you disable NetFlow on a port, NetFlow will stop sampling and the current flow data will
be exported when the export time out interval expires.
To disable NetFlow globally, use either of the following commands:
set netflow cache disable
clear netflow all
When you execute the clear netflow all command, all NetFlow settings are returned to their
default condition. In the case of the global NetFlow cache setting, the default is disabled.
Displaying NetFlow Information
To display the current NetFlow configuration settings:
show netflow config
To display NetFlow statistics on a per‐port basis:
show netflow statistics port-string
To display flow counters for the current cached NetFlow information, on a system‐wide or
IOM‐specific basis:
show netflow cache-flow [slot-id]
