Config Flowstats Export Add Port - Extreme Networks ExtremeWare Command Reference Manual

config flowstats export add port

config flowstats export <group#> add [<ipaddress> | <hostname>] <udp_port>
Description
Adds a flow-collector device to an export group to which NetFlow datagrams are exported.
Syntax Description
group#
ipaddress
hostname
udp_port
Default
N/A.
Usage Guidelines
You can configure up to 32 export distribution groups. Each group may contain up to eight
flow-collection devices. At least one flow-collector destination must be configured for NetFlow
datagrams to be exported to a group.
When multiple flow-collectors are configured as members of the same group, the exported NetFlow
datagrams are distributed across the available destinations. This NetFlow-distribution feature enables a
scalable collection architecture that is able to accommodate high volumes of exported data. The
distribution algorithm ensures that all the records for a given flow are exported to the same collector.
The algorithm also ensures that flow records for both the ingress and egress directions of a TCP or UDP
connection are exported to the same collector (when both flows traverse the same link and both filters
are configured to export to the same group).
Issuing this command also enables the collection of NetFlow statistics.
See Chapter 22 for information on a similar command for the PoS module (BlackDiamond switch only).
Example
The following command adds the flow-collector device with IP address 10.205.30.15 using UDP port
2025 to export group 5 for this switch:
config flowstats export 5 add 10.205.30.15 2025
History
This command was first available in ExtremeWare 6.2.
Platform Availability
This command is available on the "i" series platforms.
