That’s because NetFlow v5 is not extensible like IPFIX, so it’s logical for NetFlow collectors to only support a fixed set of elements. > However I have not found a single collectors that supports IPFIX from OVS. > Tcpdump and wireshark both show that IPFIX is on the wire.

We welcome patches to extend or improve the templates to make them work with more collectors, or at least information about which elements are expected by popular collectors. > Do you have any recommendations as to a collector please?
