Hi All,
i want configure netflow on cisco 837 and 877 for the netflow analyzer. my router wouldnt recognise the ip route-cache flow on the router on the interface on fastethernet. please help
Have you tried the netflow configurator?
http://www.solarwinds.com/products/freetools/netflow_configurator.aspx
Is it responding to the ip flow-cache and ip flow-export commands?
This should work on the 877s. The 837 will require NetFlow v9 config using ip flow ingress and ip flow egress commands at the (config-if) level. Make sure to configure netflow at the (config) level with
thanks for the replies. i have a doubt now. router is 877 and its a site to site vpn and we have the vlans on the router. so ip route-cache flow command should be excuted on the vlans or on the fastethernet physical interface. on fe0 the ip route-cache command doesnt work. but on the vlan interface the command did work. please advise
toms003,
Try this...
Global commands:
ip flow-cache timeout active 1
ip flow-export source Loopback1 (or the interface you want reporting to NTA)
ip flow-export version 5
ip flow-export destination <NTA IP> 2055
ip flow-top-talkers
top 20
sort-by bytes
I typically don't use "ip route-cache flow," instead, try using "ip flow ingress" or "ip flow egress" on the physical interfaces. All traffic flows through the physical interfaces, and you can capture all the conversations while limiting the resources necessary for collecting the data.
Here's the Cisco doc for reference, you probably already have this: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/12_1/switch/configuration/guide/xcdnfc.html
Hope this helps.

Hi Dwyane,
thanks.the main problem is my cisco router 877 wouldnt recognise the ip flow ingress or regress or route cache command on fe2 or fe0 which are the 2 physcial interface. the ip commands listed are below.there is no ip route cache or ingress listed.pls see below
interface IP configuration subcommands:
address Set the IP address of an interface
ddns Configure dynamic DNS
dhcp Configure DHCP parameters for this interface
header-compression IPHC options
rsvp RSVP Interface Commands
rtp RTP parameters
vrf VPN Routing/Forwarding parameters on the interface
I did a search on the Cisco web site, I don't think the 8xx routers support netflow. I think the smallest router that does is the 19xx. The data sheet for the 1900 series routers is the first reference to netflow support. I could be wrong, but thaat wold certainly explain the missing commands.
