Hello,
Can anybody help me to understand flow-import ?
I'm collecting flow by cflowd with the following
configuration:

CISCOEXPORTER {
   HOST:         x.x.x.x
   ADDRESSES:    { x.x.x.x }
   CFDATAPORT:   2055
   SNMPCOMM:     'public'
   LOCALAS:      MYASNUM
   COLLECT:      { netmatrix, ifmatrix, portmatrix, asmatrix
  }
}

The artsnets utility produces valid information.
But after doing

flow-import -V5 -f0 < arts.YYYYMMDD > ft-YYYYMMDD

the command

flow-cat ft-YYYYMMDD | flow-stat -f10 -S3

gives some absolutely fantastic data far from
real src/dst IP addresses.

SY,
