Configuring a Data Destination
There are three general categories of CLI commands related to the configuration of data destinations:
•
General commands that apply to both the RDRv1 protocol and the NetFlow protocol
•
Commands that are relevant only to the RDR formatter (may affect NetFlow exporting as well)
•
Commands relevant only to the NetFlowV9 protocol and the NetFlow exporting support
Options
In order for the data records, either RDRs or NetFlow export packets, from the Cisco SCE platform to
arrive at the correct location, the following parameters must be configured:
•
ip-address—
The IP address of the destination
•
portnumber—
The port number
•
protocol
—The protocol used for data sent to the destination (either RDRv1 or NetFlow; if no
protocol is assigned the protocol is RdrV1)
•
transport—
The transport type, TCP or UDP (optional, as this parameter is determined by the
protocol)
A priority value may be assigned. Priority is important in the redundancy forwarding mode, but not
crucial in multicast mode. Remember that in multicast mode, the existence of any priority value causes
the destination to receive reports. The relationship between priorities and categories is addressed in
“Configuring a Destination and Assigning Categories” section on page 9-9
From the SCE(config)# prompt, type:
Configuring the Data Destinations: Examples
Example 1
This example shows how to configure a simple system with only one destination, using the NetFlow
protocol. With only one destination, it is not necessary to configure a priority value.
