While working with one of our customers who had a Maipu Router, we realized that we don’t have the router’s NetFlow configuration in our website and I am sharing it with you in this blog. 

 Maipu Routers are capable of exporting “IP Flow Information Export” in short IPFIX. NetFlow Analyzer will be able to analyze IPFIX data and thus resulting in monitoring of Maipu Routers.

 Give below are the configuration that has to be done for enabling IPFIX on the Maipu device.

configuration:

router[config]# ipfix source serial0/0

router[config]# ipfix destination 192.168.1.1 9996

router[config]# ipfix template refresh timers 1

router[config]# ipfix template refresh packets 500

router[config]# ipfix template flow fields

router[config]# ipfix template option refresh timers 1

router[config]# ipfix template option refresh packets 500

router[config]# ipfix option export

router[config]# ipfix option export export 1

router[config]# ip flow enable

 

router[config]# int gigaethernet2

router[config-if-gigaethernet2]# ipfix ingress

router[config-if-gigaethernet2]# exit

 

From the above the Ingress should be enabled on all active layer 3 interfaces.

Once you have configured the devices to export IPFIX, there is no configuration that has to be done on the product itself as it will automatically capture the packets reaching the server on UDP port 9996 and start displaying the data.
