Kelly,
 
You haven't listed the router config line where your destination IP and
UDP port is specified. It should be something like. 
    ip flow-export destination 10.0.1.13 2055
As you are receiving flows I suspect that is not the problem, however
you many not have configured flow-capture to listen on your chosen UDP
port 2055?   
 
Here's my flow-capture start command with your directory and UDP port 
    /usr/local/netflow/bin/flow-capture -N0 -z0 -V7 -n 288 -w
/var/netflow/ 0/0/2055
 
If that doesn't work switch to a UDP port > 10000 just in case you're
clashing with another listening UDP port.
 
HTH
 
Cheers
 
Alistair

Subject: [Flow-tools] Not seeing any data in the flow tools files


I'm having some difficulty getting Netflow working correctly. When I try
to run a report on the flows processed, I see zero for all types of
protocols, etc. I've been using Robert Galloway's instructions:
<http://www.dynamicnetworks.us/netflow/netflow-howto.html>
http://www.dynamicnetworks.us/netflow/netflow-howto.html . I'm using
CentOS 4.4, Flow-tools 0.68 and CUFlow

I've got a Cisco 2651XM with 2 ethernet interfaces. Here's the
interesting part of the config from the router:

 

interface FastEthernet0/0

 ip address 192.168.104.5 255.255.255.0

 ip route-cache flow

!

interface FastEthernet0/1

 ip address 192.168.214.1 255.255.255.0

 ip route-cache flow

!

ip flow-export source FastEthernet0/0

ip flow-export version 5 peer-as

 

>From the router, I can see some flow data:

 

IP Flow Switching Cache, 278544 bytes


  11 active, 4085 inactive, 47459 added


  865673 ager polls, 0 flow alloc failures


  Active flows timeout in 1 minutes                                   

  Inactive flows timeout in 15 seconds


IP Sub Flow Cache, 17032 bytes                              

  11 active, 1013 inactive, 47459 added, 47459 added to flow


  0 alloc failures, 0 force free                                

  1 chunk, 1 chunk added                        

  last clearing of statistics never

 

The Netflow collector is receiving data. I checked IPtables to see if it
was blocking 2055 and it's not.

Flow-tools and CUFlow are processing it (although very quickly since
there's no data):

Here's the output of one of the files showing no data:

 

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ft]# flow-cat ft-v05.2007-03-16.113500-0400 |
flow-print

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ft]#

 

 

Any ideas of what I can check next?

Thanks,

Kelly
