If you apply an additional MPLS flow monitor to the interface, the new flow monitor overwrites the existing one. At a time, you can apply only one flow monitor on an interface per direction. You can apply either the same flow monitor to an interface in both directions, or each direction can have its own flow monitor. You can configure the MPLS flow monitor to collect IPv4 fields, IPv6 fields, or IPv4-IPv6 fields. IPv4-IPv6 configuration collects both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses using one MPLS flow monitor. IPv4 configuration collects only IPv4 addresses. IPv6 configuration collects only IPv6 addresses. The MPLS flow monitor supports up to 1,000,000 cache entries. NetFlow entries include the following types of fields: •IPv4 fields •IPv6 fields •MPLS with IPv4 fields •MPLS with IPv6 fields -------------------------------------- --chip -- Just my $.02, your mileage may vary, batteries not included, etc.... _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
