Hello,
I've configured ip flow-export on a 7500 Cisco router.
I don't understand why there are many (too many!) dropped packets as you 
can see below.
The CPU is working fine, no more then 60%.

Flow export is enabled
  Exporting flows to x.x.x.x (x)
  Exporting using source interface Loopback0
  Version 5 flow records, origin-as
  175005914 flows exported in 5835378 udp datagrams
  0 flows failed due to lack of export packet
  0 export packets were sent up to process level
  0 export packets were punted to the RP
  0 export packets were dropped due to no fib
  0 export packets were dropped due to adjacency issues
--->  16385 export packets were dropped enqueuing for the RP
--->  1820823 export packets were dropped due to IPC rate limiting
  0 export packets were dropped due to output drops

May be somebody can help me? Thank you in advance.
