Hi, all!

Have got a problem, and doesnt know where else to look for resolving...

flow-tools version 0.68.
FreeBSD 7.3-RELEASE
flow-capture works with args -V 6 -S 5 -z 9 -n 47 -w /some/dir

Suddenly our cisco router has a problem with ip accounting cpu utilization. We 
decided to turn it off, using netflow for accounting instead. Understand, that 
it is not such reliable as ip accounting, but we can handle this - most of our 
customers using pppoe service on other routers (whose just fine with ip 
accounting). 

flow-print -f 6 give us the wanted output, but without any aggregation. So if 
we have 1.5 million lines text file with -f 5, the same line count for -f 6. It 
seems like -f 16 (Source Destination aggregation (Catalyst)) is exactly what we 
need, but it doesnt work with an error: Flow record missing required field for 
format.

Hm. It's strange, because what else could it needs to aggregate? Src ip, dest 
ip, packets, bytes. That's all. Which exactly field missed in flow file? 

Tried to run flow-capture -V 7 (have the same error), and -V 8.8 (got 
Unexpected PDU: src_ip=212.0.65.1 no v8 translation). Do we have to tune cisco 
router netflow settings?

I think forward to write a simple perl script to do this job, but my principal 
ask me to search some existent implementation. Maybe i should use some other 
method (program?) to get ip accounting from flow files?
