is a NetFlow destination, the multicast forwarding mode must be configured.

All records are sent only to the primary (active) connection. If the primary
connection fails, the records will be sent to the connected destination with the next highest priority.
•
multicast—
All records are sent to all destinations. This feature may negatively affect performance
in an installation with a high rate of data.
•
