I have attempted to configure netflow v9, but I am not able to generate any flows within my 3750X switches. Should I add more configuration to my netflow module to get the flows to be read on my solarwinds NTA server? Or should I switch to netflow v5 to accomplish this task?
Here is my configuration & I am using IOS 15.2(4):
flow record Record
match datalink source-vlan-id
match datalink dot1q priority
match datalink mac source-address
match datalink mac destination-address
match ipv4 version
match ipv4 tos
match ipv4 ttl
match ipv4 protocol
match ipv4 source address
match ipv4 destination address
match transport source-port
match transport destination-port
match interface input physical snmp
collect interface output snmp
collect counter flows
collect counter bytes
collect counter packets
collect timestamp sys-uptime first
collect timestamp sys-uptime last
