Rules for expiring NetFlow cache entries include:

•Flows which have been idle for a specified time are expired and removed 
from the cache

•Long lived flows are expired and removed from the cache (flows are not 
allowed to live more than 30 minutes by default, the underlying packet 
conversation remains undisturbed)

•As the cache becomes full a number of heuristics are applied to 
aggressively age groups of flows simultaneously

•TCP connections which have reached the end of byte stream (FIN) or which 
have been reset (RST) will be expired.

Expired flows are grouped together into "NetFlow Export" datagrams for 
export from the NetFlow-enabled device. NetFlow Export datagrams may 
consist of up to 30 flow records for version 5 or 9 flow export.
