When collecting a large amount of netflow data. It is crucial to monitor specific metrics on each polling engine. This template will look for specific Windows Performance Counters related to netflow collection with a focus on monitoring the netflow drops. When an engine is dropping netflow packets it means that the engine is most likely overloaded.
This needs to be assigned to all polling engines collecting netflow traffic (Main Polling Engine and/or Additional Polling Engine).
Performance of the Netflow Database is also required, but would be better handled via another application template or using a product like Database Performance Analyzer (DPA)
